Description
The Myrtleford-Stanley Road was only fully sealed in late 2012 making this climb relatively new for most road cyclists. The average gradient of roughly 5% might suggest a steady ascent but in reality this climb can be broken into three sections: an easy start, a challenging middle section, and a rolling finale.
This climb features in the Gran Fondo Beechworth, a recreational challenge ride held in March or April.
