CLIMB SUMMARY

panoramic view looking down from Skye Lookout to Adelaide below

Cycling Coach Road to Skye Lookout, Adelaide, Australia

Ride 3 kilometers gaining 274 meters at 9.1%

climb start at Penford Road and The Parade, Adelaide; sign for S.A. Olive Oil

Climb begins at the intersection of Penford Road and The Parade at the eastern edge of Adelaide.

Coach Road to Skye Lookout is the fifth hardest bike climb in South Australia.  It boasts a tough 9.1% average grade and has a 500 meter segment at 13.5% beginning at kilometer 1.3.  Almost half of the climb (42%) averages between 10 and 15% grade - it is a beast!

Summary by PJAMM’s Brad Butterfield.

Pristine pavement and a stair stepping climb up to the summit. The climb takes you through another very high-end neighborhood of Adelaide with a lot of recently constructed - what I would call, mansions…or even castles. Holy moly, these houses were nice.

The climb ends at a fairly nondescript dirt lot with views of a quarry nearby, and of course Adelaide city and the coast off in the distance.
