Andersons Fire Trail - NSW

This adrenaline-filled mountain bike adventure in Blue Mountains National Park has ultra-steep sections, loose gravel, and obstacles bound to challenge even the most experienced rider.
Best tackled west to east, this route starts from the Old Queen Victoria Hospital on Kings Tableland Road. Follow the unsealed road towards McMahons Point for 7km and turn left onto Andersons fire trail at the gate. Stay right at the fork after 650m.
This 12km section along Andersons fire trail winds through steep gullies and open eucalypt forest atop the escarpment. Breathe in the fabulous aroma of the peppermint gums as you cycle, and keep an eye out for echidnas or swamp wallabies on the track.
At the end of Andersons fire trail turn right onto Bedford Creek trail and cross the creek. This is a great stop to refuel or cool your feet before the major uphill slog out to Woodford Station, around 9km away. Alternatively, turn left onto Bedford Creek trail before the creek crossing and return uphill to the hospital via Ingar Road for a 32km loop.
Well-prepared riders can also combine this ride with an overnight stay at Murphys Glen campground. Or, if you’ve got the legs for an extended ride, link up with the Woodford-Oaks trail. This adds 25km and a thigh-numbing final climb to Glenbrook Station.
