About this ride
Humevale is a favourite with Melbourne road cyclists looking for a solid climb without heading too far from the city. Starting near Whittlesea, the Humevale Road climb winds steadily into the hills through farmland and bushland, delivering a sustained but generally manageable ascent that makes it popular for training rides, climbing challenges and weekend road loops. The quiet rural setting and gradual change from open countryside to forest make the climb as enjoyable for the scenery as it is for the elevation, with plenty of options to incorporate it into a longer ride through Melbourne’s northern ranges. RTS Tip: Humevale is a great climb for riders wanting to build confidence on longer ascents—the gradient is generally steady enough to find your rhythm and settle in. Save a little for the final kilometres, watch for vehicles on the open road and consider linking it with Kinglake for a much bigger climbing day.
