The 42 Traverse is one of the premier rides in the North Island and it begins just a short drive away from Tongariro Holiday Park. Renowned for the long and often rutted down hills, this track will test even the most kamikaze of mountain bikers.
The scenery is outstanding, from wide vistas of all three volcanoes to sparkling streams and lush unspoiled bush.
Fishers Track is a relatively unknown downhill but a real blast, with the best part of 17km downhill dropping from 900 metres to 400 metres.
The John McDonald Loop is great for experienced riders who like a challenge. Perhaps the best ride in Tongariro Forest, this 40km loop takes 4 to 7 hours with every type of riding imaginable and requires excellent navigational skills.
There are many other excellent mountain bike tracks very nearby, and we will be happy help you decide which ones to try. We also offer a car ferrying service for guests and non-guests, as cars are generally not secure being left unattended for longer periods.
