Cycle in, Cycle out
The kilnhouses are situated close to the Murray to Mountains Rail Trail which has an extensive network of sealed off road trails linking the natural bushland, farmland and towns in the region.
Each of the kilnhouses comes equipped with two Chappelli bicycles for guests to enjoy.
The Chappelli bicycles have been designed to maximise riding comfort for rides of 7-10km particularly for those guests who may not ride that often.
The bikes have a simplified and easy to use gear system, comfortable saddles and up-right riding style. Helmets are also provided.
