There are over 40 kilometres of trail you can ride from the top of Rotorua's Whakarewarewa Forest Shuttle Run. A short bus ride jumps you up nearly 400m in altitude, where you can take your pick between rolling straight onto a Grade 3 flow trail, a Grade 4 gnar trail, or a full-on nest of championship downhill lines. 

A short pedal can take you to many more trails, and your shuttle ride can be a rinse and repeat, or a single lift that forms the backbone of a massive day.

At nearby Skyline MTB Park, a dedicated mountain bikers' gondola will lift you to the top of a mad collection of grin-getting trails - over twelve kilometres in total, suitable for a range of skill levels.
