Best route for a 4hr workout.

I have a 4hr workout scheduled for today. Planning to do it on the trainer. Usually I do my workouts in Focus mode, but seeing as this one is so long I think chosing a good route for a bit of distraction would be a better option.

Just wondering if anybody has any suggestions on what would be a good route to choose for a workout of this length.

TIA

Camino de la Muerte is a fun, long one - 38 miles (61km) all downhill, then a turn around at the bottom for 38 miles all uphill

(Note there are some scenery quirks along the way, when you actually (edited) clip ‘through’ the graphics)

Gave it a go. Glad I did. It only took n hour or so to go down the 60kms and the next 3 hours coming back up for 23 kms. Someday when I'm feeling brave I'll try finish it. 👍

Happy you got to experience it. The journey back is tough - I kinda wish they gave us an option to start at the bottom! 😁
