Location: 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.

Chris and I stayed at the Royal Hotel on the way home from the Toowoomba NatRally.  It's a lovely spot, and keep an eye out for the steel etc sculptures around the town, including the big gum tree made from star droppers in the back yard of the Royal.   :thumb

Brad and Toni are the co-owners of the Royal Hotel and all the metal work is done by Brad in his shed or onsite.....I'm unsure of his inspiration but it certainly is an impressive display  :thumbsup

Brad and Toni are mad keen motorcyclists....check them out at the Royal.

I think this is a lunchtime ride? The Royal Cafe is only open until 5 pm.

So, say 12 noon for lunch?

I'm thinking about it, but if it is a lunch then I would need to leave Canberra on the Friday and overnight somewhere . .

Unfortunately I can't make this ride. Walcha is a top spot with plenty of good riding options. Have a safe ride.  :13Candy
