Ghost town stories
Hidden in Sydneys Warragamba catchment area is about as remote as you can get while still in the Sydney region.
Needless to say it’s a ride that requires planning especially if fuel range is an issue with your bike. Best to fuel in Mittagong and for those with range anxiety you can top up in Taralga. However on weekends the Taralga servo is only open in the morning. Call first to confirm.
It is 178km to Yerranderie direct from Mittagong. Yerranderie to Oberon via Shooter Hill is 104km. Allow extra fuel for any unexpected road closures. A fuel range of 350km is recommended.

Yerranderie
During the summer break Tenere Ray and I headed for Yerranderie west of Sydney for a short 2 day tour. The first day of riding was great and ended up being a bit more of a reccy for a future ride. There are a few trails closed and areas off limits being a catchment area. We’ll be mapping it out in the Travel section of ORE. Keep an eye out for updates.
Getting There
The ride starts from Mittagong and heads out along the old Hume Highway to Wobeyan Caves Road.
