Overnight RTE Royal Hotel Walcha Sat/Sunday 15 December 2018
« on: November 06, 2018, 09:16:33 AM »
This can be a Lunch and or/a Dinner RTE depending on how far or how much time you have on hand.

Lunch can be the Cafe and dinner could be the Aspley Arms Hotel?

So come and join us for a great lunch or Dinner or both and stay overnight and enjoy some good riding roads getting there and back.

Routes

If you are traveling from Sydney, the quickest and most scenic route to drive to Walcha is up the Newcastle Expressway onto the Pacific Highway via Hexham, Raymond Terrace, Stroud, Gloucester and Barrington. Approximately 16km north of Raymond Terrace on the Pacific Highway, you TURN LEFT on the Bucket’s Way to Gloucester and Stroud. Travel through Gloucester, Stroud and Barrington and approximately 1.5km north of Barrington you TURN RIGHT where the sign says Walcha. Walcha is approximately 142 kms from Barrington. This is the most scenic part of your journey where you cross several rivers and slowly climb up into the New England Ranges with wonderful views of the Giro Valley and mountains as you drive. You eventually get to the Walcha Shire and then begin driving through very picturesque and fertile grazing land where you will see some of the best cattle and sheep grazing country in NSW.

coming from Canberra I will be taking this route, departing home on Friday with an overnight stop along the way arriving in Walcha for the 12.30 Lunch.

I'm in for both lunch and dinner. Unsure about the staying overnight yet. Are you planning an afternoon ride between lunch and dinner?
If I was coming from Sydney I would go via Putty road and join with your route at Singleton.
