Thousands of years ago, one of the largest eruptions in history left a hole the size of Lake Taupō. Volcanic rock was thrown over a vast area creating a unique, spectacular landscape.
Forming a mountain biker's paradise with a catalogue of memorable moments — from slicing through volcanic gorges on your bike, taking a helicopter ride over ancient terrains, to jetting across the crystalline waters of Lake Taupō, every turn goes beyond your wildest biker dreams.
The network is waiting to be conquered by riders of all levels, whether you're a full strength thrill-seeking adventurer, a medium trail connoisseur, or a family pack scenic explorer.
Thanks to our pumice-rich, free-draining soils of the region, year-round singletrack riding is calling. Time to get on your bike!
Shift gears to find the speed, locale and vibes that make your pedals turn. Delight in Taupō region’s achingly beautiful landscapes from the saddle of a bike, with over 30 rides to explore, brew your own journey to your taste: full strength, medium or family pack.
All roads point to the Taupō Region and all trails point to adventure. Fail to plan, and plan to trail - as the saying goes? We eat mountain biking for breakfast and have transport operators, and MTB services galore to set you up and set you free! Fancy getting dirty?
