Hakatere – Boundary Mystery

This route has a lot of different terrain. From flowing 4wd track to unridable bouldery horribleness, to steep untracked death slope and excellent singletrack. This route is a blast!

Dracophylum Flats & Hogs Back

A lot of work has gone into these two tracks recently, and it shows. They are brilliant, fast flowing and technical; a complete joy to ride! The scenery just happens to be great as well.

Lake Hawea Classic

This track is only open for one day a year, during the Lake Hawea race. The track itself isn’t the most interesting with bits of singletrack, gravel road and 4wd track, but the scenery is stunning and the length is challenging.

Dun Mountain Trail

The Dun Mountain Trail is based on the line of an old railway that was used to transport minerals down from the high mines. The ride is characterised by long steady climbs and brilliant single track descents.

Flock Hill

4wd and gravel tracks that circumnavigate Broken Hill on the Flock Hill estate. The views are amazing, and a detour can be made to the avoca homestead, Doc hut.

Wharfedale Loop

Technically challenging and fun singletrack eases into pleasant 4wd track that takes you into Lees Valley. Gravel road then leads through the impressive Ashley river gorge to Oxford.

Fairlie Walkway

A short single track from Fairlie town. Only really worth doing if you have some time to kill or want to break up a journey.

Sticky Forest

A small forest with plenty of singletrack!!! Lots of downhill with jumps and berms a plenty. The shear number of tracks can make navigation quite hard.

Rude Rock

In my opinion one of the best pieces of single track anywhere. Its fast, exposed and has an awesome view, even if it’s marred by an unsightly rock formation…

Moke Lake – Lake Dispute – 7 Mile

A loop round Moke Lake, past Lake Dispute then through 7 mile forest. This route has a bit of everything from steep technical 4wd track to smooth single track. Its a proper mix with great scenery.
