Up the short Callander hill lookout, then head down Wasi Rd. to Nipissing Village. Then turn left onto Hwy 534 towards the bottom of the old ski hill, (see elevation profile below). Follow 534 to Powassan, turn right on Main St. Then left on Memorial Drive. Follow memorial to the T and turn left onto Alderdale Rd. This turns into Groulx and takes you back out to 654 and Callander. Total distance= 100KM Time Required=3.5-5.5 Hrs depnding on stops for lunch etc… Alderdale road is Gravel, so be prepared with a spare tube as always incase of puncture.
Starting from Twiggs Coffee shop. this 100KM ride has a nice long warm-up out the flat bike path to Callander.
