Turn left and follow the route around Lake Ramsey.

Carry on along the trail through the Conservation Area

Turn right here and head for Coniston

Maybe stop in the park for lunch.

Continue on along Government Road

Turn left, then right to get to Highway 17

Turn left here, and then right almost straight away on to the Garson road.

Follow the Garson Road all the way to Garson. This is a long uphill slog, great for the legs!

Turn left onto O'Neill Drive

Crossover the main road here to continue on O'Neill Drive

A good place to stop for an ice-cream after the ride from Coniston. The mini-mart in the mall does some great ice-creams.

Follow O'Neill Drive all the way to the end

At the end turn on to the snow-mobile track on the left. This runs parallel to the golf course

The trail may be very muddy in places, but you can always nip onto the golf course to get around and hope you don't get seen.

This bit here is very wet, and you can detour onto the golf-buggy track, or go right and take the long way around the pond (see satellite image).

Emerge from the jungle on to Maley Drive

If you don't fancy mixing with the traffic, turn onto one of the residential streets and follow parallel to Barrydowne

Straight over here on Barrydowne

Right on to Hawthorne

Left at the end of Hawthorne

Turn right at the arena

Left onto the Junction Creek path, over the bridge

Straight on here at the cross-roads of tracks

Follow the Junction Creek trail from here

Emerge on to Mountain Street, and follow it into town

Turn left here and get back onto the Junction Creek trail

Head south from here, either along the main road, or wind your way through the small streets to the east away from the traffic

Come off the road here and go down the steps on to Drinkwater Street

Left on Elgin Street at the hotel

Across the footbridge here, back onto the Lake Ramsey bike path

Follow the bike path through Bell Park

Finish, and time to grab a cold drink at the snack bar!
