Mountain Bike Only

Overview

This is a chance for mtn bikers who aren't keen on the multisport or duathlon options to have a crack at one of the best rides around.

Our mountain bike is the gem in the region's mountain bike crown. The 32k tour of Rangituhi Trail Park and Spicer Forest is 95% single track, taking in the region's highest peak and featuring views out over Porirua and the Tasman Sea.

Starting from the Kai Tahi HQ, the 32k route follows cycle paths along Porirua Stream and through Bishop Viard College to Rangituhi's single track heaven, climbing and descending Rangituhi itself, then heading south to Spicer Reserve and Spicer Forest before returning through Viard and the cycle paths back to the Kai Tahi finish line. There's 800m of climbing, which also means 800m of descending, and with nothing too over the top, this is a ride for almost anyone.


E-bikes are welcome !
