Peaks Challenge Falls Creek is one of the greatest riding experiences of your life.
You’ll tackle the ascents of Tawonga Gap, Mount Hotham and finally, the beast that is the back of Falls Creek. It will hit you like a tonne of bricks.
Last year, 2,000 riders faced the peaks but only those who crossed the finish line within the 13-hour deadline earn the right to proudly call themselves Peaks Challenge finishers.
One of the greatest riding experiences of your life is within reach – you ride, we’ll do the rest.

The beginning
In 2010, our first riders took on the peaks in Victoria’s rugged High Country. Riders were pushed to their limits and beyond, but still rose to the challenge. The legend of the series was born.
Last year, 2,000 riders faced one of Australia’s toughest bike rides, Peaks Challenge Falls Creek.
The final Cradle Mountain
2017 also saw 300 riders tackle the rugged but spectacular landscape of Tassie’s North West at the final Peaks Challenge Cradle Mountain.
