CLIMB SUMMARY

Cycling Crafers Bikeway, Adelaide, Australia

Ride 10.8 kilometers gaining 482 meters at 4.4% average grade.

After Norton Summit Road (432,450 Strava attempts as of April 2022), Crafers Bikeway is the second most attempted climb in the Adelaide area, with 328,576 attempts.

The first kilometer of the climb is along a residential area on Princess Highway.

Climb summary by PJAMM’s Brad Butterfield.

The Crafers Bikeway climb starts on the main throughway in and out of the city. So, for about a kilometer I rode on the sidewalk as the traffic is constant and there’s no shoulder or bike path. Once on the bike path, you’re cruisin’. The quality of that bike path is a real testament to the cyclist culture in Adelaide. They even had road workers doing repairs on the path the day I rode it. The climb itself never pitches up very aggressively. For most of the way, you’ll parallel the freeway and views are minimal. The last quarter of the climb enters a more residential area, and you even pass some wineries towards the top.
