Giro de Cassilis

The Giro de Cassilis is a two-day gravel cycling event in the heart of the Upper Hunter, designed to showcase Cassilis as a prime cycling destination. On Saturday, riders will take on the challenging Triple Crown, an 88-kilometre course with rugged gravel paths. Sunday's ride offers a more relaxed 48-kilometre route, mixing gravel and tarred roads, including some hill climbs. Both rides are out-and-back courses, allowing cyclists to choose their own distance and turn around when they feel ready. The event caters to cyclists of all abilities, with the option of shorter routes providing a more leisurely experience. This flexibility encourages participation from both competitive cyclists and those looking for a fun ride while also promoting community engagement and supporting local businesses in Cassilis. Riders will finish both days at the Royal Hotel, where they can enjoy a well-deserved meal and refreshments. Whether you're chasing the challenge of the Triple Crown or simply enjoying a scenic ride through the Upper Hunter, the Giro de Cassilis offers something for everyone. Come for the ride, stay for the community and local flavour!
