ROUND THE MOUNTAIN - 20KM BIKE
One bike, one rider, one mountain, lots of single track. 2 new 3km purpose built mountain bike single tracks were completed in 2014. Don't miss your chance to ride these amazing new trails.

The 2022 winning time was 1:24, intermediate riders should allow at least 2hrs to complete the 20 km loop. You don't need to be an expert Mountain Biker, though we would like to note that there are some very technical sections, and beginners should be prepared to walk some sections.
