Leaving from the reef and rainforest environment which typifies the Cairns area, the Coast to Coast Bike Ride travels over the Great Dividing Range, through the scenic Tablelands region with it’s volcanic origins and into the Savannah Outback – following the Savannah Way through to the marine plains and wetlands before reaching the Gulf of Carpentaria coastline at Karumba.  You will see the regions landscapes and wildlife, meet the warm and friendly locals in each community, be greeted and entertained by the children the ride supports and we will look after you all the way.
