Over four days you’ll ride more than a 1100km's through some of Victoria’s most striking landscapes. Leaving the surf at Lorne, the route heads inland across farmland and backroads before climbing into the rugged sandstone ridges of the Grampians. Here, dramatic cliffs, sweeping gravel trails and mountain lookouts set the tone for true adventure riding.

Rolling further west, the open plains around Hamilton stretch endlessly towards the horizon, broken only by winding country backroads and quiet bushland connectors. It’s the calm before the return to the coast, where the journey leads into Port Campbell. Nestled on the Great Ocean Road and home to the iconic 12 Apostles, this stage of the ride delivers one of Australia’s most photographed coastal landscapes — a fitting reminder of the scale and drama of the route.

The final push is a highlight in itself, diving into the lush forests of the Otway Ranges. Towering gums, mossy gullies and twisting ridge roads create a flowing, technical playground for adventure bikes, carrying you back towards the ocean. The ride closes where it began, at Lorne, with the salt air of the Southern Ocean on your face and the satisfaction of having conquered the ultimate coast-to-stone loop.

Expect a balance of flowing gravel, hidden forestry trails, quiet backroads and winding sealed sections that keep each day dynamic and rewarding. Evenings are spent in classic pubs and motels, with hot showers, hearty meals and a cold beer — the perfect reset before another day on the bike.
