Mountain Bike Trails in Motupōhue Adventure Park (Bluff Hill)

B-Line

Great bit of hand built trail through native forest combining rocks and natural features. It has a nice creek gap at the 2/3 the way down with a easy option on the left.

Link from Crawlies to Bline.

Incognito B

This trail is an alternative to the standard Incogneto. It will eventually link down to the Fixx.

Kareao

Kareao is the maori name for supplejack which climbing vine. This is a climbing mountain bike trail and a duel direction waking trail.

Konini

This trail is the old climb (Weezer) in reverse. In 2024 it had a new top section cut into it which is accessed off Whisky Creek. It's grade 4 at the top and the bottom. The old access point from the junction up the hill is sill visible in the scrub.

Lower Fixx

Motopohue

Steep slippy start, mixed with a couple of shoots and drops then into fast jumps, berms and rocks. This majority of the track had a significant upgrade in November 2019. The middle and bottom sections had berms and jumps reshaped and drainage work completed in advance of the 2020 National Series. The track runs awesome now and has a super easy shuttle (7 minutes up) which enables four runs per hour.

Mr G. Was a local legend who cleared the gorse from he water race. It's a fun little trail the finishes on the water race.

Taurapa

Intermediate Flow Trail.

The Fixx

Weezer

Weezer is the main climbing trail to get to the top of the trail network. It follows single trails through regenerating indigenous vegetation past to the two reservoirs and offers great views across Bluff, the windfarm, Foveaux Strait and Raikiura.

Whiskey Creek

A dual direction trail that starts in the middle of Sound Garden, its pretty flat to start with then climbs a short pinch to get onto the water race that traverses around the back of Bluff hill, it then climbs again past Mr G then joins ZZ Top just above the junction. Rides really well in reverse direction too. Best avoided when wet.

Wētā

Uphill trail linking the two access roads.
