点评:While staying in Merrijig we drove to Mansfield and hired a couple of bikes and rode part of the Rail Trail from Mansfield to Bonnie Doon and back.
It was a great ride on a well formed trail , nearly all fairly flat with just a couple of uphill sections.
It was a pleasant ride on a perfectly calm and sunny day.
We left in the morning and came back in the afternoon so the sun was always behind us.
Lovely riding through the country side seeing all the cows and sheep grazing happily away.
Hay season so we saw lots of hay harvesting going on.
Birds were very active, lots of beautiful parrots and cockatoo’s , other birds you never saw but we could hear them calling.
We also came across a busy echidna, that was a treat..
We met a few other bike riders but as it was mid week the trail was not busy, it was nice riding on the bridge over the water of Lake Eildon.
A great experience, if you get the chance do it
翻译:在梅里吉格 (Merrijig) 逗留期间,我们开车去了曼斯菲尔德 (Mansfield),租了两辆自行车,沿着铁路步道 (Rail Trail) 从曼斯菲尔德骑行到邦妮杜恩 (Bonnie Doon) 并返回。
这是一条很棒的步道,路况良好,几乎全程平坦,只有几段上坡。
那天阳光明媚,风平浪静,骑行体验非常愉快。
我们早上出发,下午返回,所以太阳始终在我们身后。
骑行穿过乡村,看到牛羊悠闲地吃草,感觉非常惬意。
正值干草收割季,我们看到很多干草正在收割。
鸟儿们非常活跃,有很多漂亮的鹦鹉和凤头鹦鹉,还有一些我们没看到但能听到鸣叫的鸟。
我们还遇到了一只忙碌的针鼹,真是个惊喜。
我们遇到了一些其他的骑行者,但由于是周中,步道上并不拥挤,在埃尔登湖 (Lake Eildon) 上的桥上骑行感觉很棒。
这是一次很棒的体验,有机会一定要去试试。
