Riesling Trail

Another great treat in the Clare Valley is to hire a bike and cycle along the Riesling Trail. The path is well-maintained, pretty flat and easy to tackle.

Setting off from our cottage.After a very dry and scorched summer we enjoyed the sight of lush, green paddocks.And on we pedalled. Unfortunately, we had not cycled for nearly 10 years (how did that happen?!) and the bike seats were getting very hard and uncomfortable.So we heeded this sign in Penwortham (10km from Clare) and stopped here. A cup of coffee, surrounded by books.
Then back to our cottage as our bodies demanded a long hot spa! Aaahhhh....
