Welcome to That Place Mountain Bike Park, where adventure awaits! Whether you're a seasoned downhill rider looking for some white-knuckle action, or a beginner looking for some gentle grade 2 flow, we've got something for everyone. And if mountain biking isn't your thing, we also have some lovely walks for you to enjoy.

Our 52-hectare piece of land has been home to sheep and beef farming for over 30 years, with trees always being a part of the mix. Seven years ago, owners Peter and Louise made a commitment to restore and enhance the land with trees and bush, and started to explore ways to make the land financially sustainable without traditional farming. With a shared interest in mountain biking, they decided to give a mountain bike park a go.

Tom, who had some serious skills in trail building, built the first track in summer 2019 when he was home from Canada. Since then, we've added more trails of different types and difficulties, making it an ideal spot for riders of all levels. And if you want to make a weekend out of it, you can stay and camp on our land. So come on out to That Place Mountain Bike Park and enjoy the great outdoors!
