Mountain Biking Pirongia Forest

****   Add a review
#66 of 387 mountain bike trails in New Zealand
#5,903 in the world

From the car park ride up the forest road. All the singletrack hangs off it and there are nice big signs showing trail names and grade. It's a visitor friendly bike park with several map boards! Pick a trail that matches your ability and go for it! You'll soon come back onto the road - the longest trail is less than two kilometres long.

There is a short easy "Kids Trail", a toilet, a donation box, notice board and a map in a hub not far up from the car park. The whole place has a very professional, well-sorted feel.

The local club has a website at: www.waipamtb.org.nz/ and they also have a Facebook presence.
