what is the meaning of もので in the following sentence?

> ウンジさんは友達と一緒に山登りに参加したいと思っている。バスを使わずに最初から歩いて登れる **もので**
> 、土曜日のコースがいい。ウンジさんたちの希望に合うのはどれか

if I use ことで to replace もので、will the meaning of sentence be the same?

what is the meaning of もので in the following sentence?
That もの refers to （山登りの）コース like the English pronoun "one" would. They prefer
_one that allows them to hike from the start without riding the bus and that
is open on Saturdays._

もの appearing before コース might have confused you. You can rephrase the sentence
to:

> バスを使わずに最初から歩いて登れるコースで、土曜日のものがいい。

The original sentence sounds better to me not because of the word order per se
but because 土曜日のもの sounds a bit awkward.

Because this もの refers to a concrete thing (like "one" would), it can't be
replaced with こと.
