Cross Country trails start from town and head into Sticky Forest or on to Deans Bank. Every trial is hand crafted XC perfection. Many are ridable all year round as they don't suffer NZ’s worst enemy – mud! Check out the trail maps to plan your MTB mission.
Gravity riders can also be entertained by the Lismore Jump Park in town, the numerous technical trails in Sticky Forest or in summer months, the fantastic Cardrona Bike Park where World class DH runs are served by chairlift.
