Downcountry Dreaming is our all-day Indigo Epic descents shuttle package. Read about the Indigo Epic trail.

Take the Indigo Epic Uplift shuttle three times to the Wallaby Mine Track uplift point to enjoy one Baarmutha Belter descent back to Beechworth and two Homeward Bound descents to Yackandandah, with two shuttle pickups from Yack back to Beechworth after your runs.

There's time in the middle of the day for you to grab some lunch, and you'll be done and dusted by 4.15pm, perfect to stroll up to town to top off your day with a pint and pizza. There's no better way to end a full day of mountain biking than that.
