Enjoy the same start and finish line as the Blue Course in the vineyards of Oliver and Press. Instead of venturing into the Adelaide Hills, our mostly paved Green Course takes riders through the McLaren Vale on scenic back roads, the Shiraz Trail. Perfect for families and new cyclists this route offers the exclusive opportunity to ride through the beautiful vineyards of Beresford Estate and Dog Ridge Winery, which are not accessible to the public.

Starting and finishing amidst the stunning vineyards of Oliver and Press Winemakers, our RADL GRVL route showcases the finest scenery and terrain of the McLaren Vale before ascending into the hills on hidden gravel roads that wind their way through forests and groves of gum trees before descending back into wine country.
And, because no GRVL event is complete without proper food and beverage we’ve teamed up with our friends as Swell and Oliver’s Taranga to provide post-race finisher beers, food, and proper refreshments.
Looking for a shorter adventure? We’ve also put together a vineyard route that highlights the finest scenery in McLaren Vale. This flat route traverses the vineyards and local scenery and is suitable for new riders of all ages.
Fully stocked aid stations along the route will ensure that you’re fueled and ready to keep rolling and roaming neutral and medical support are on hand to ensure your safety and wellbeing.
*Final route subject to change pending permits and approvals
** Green Course does not include timing or podium prizes.
