Mountain Bike Trails in Victoria Park

Brake Free

Flow trail with berms and table top jumps.

Brakefree Intro

Brent's

Start is dropping off the end of the retaining wall at the end of Shazza's Extension. The track is then a tight, rocky and rooty single-track that then widens into multiple fast flowy lines. Finishing with a small gap over the creek.

Bridges

Fast, rooty and rocky.

BT Connector

Two-way trail going through the forested upper section of Victoria Park, connecting Bowenvale Traverse to the carpark. Can also be used to access the expert trails from the carpark.

Cool Runnings

A great flowing line of big berms and jumps. You can roll all of the features, there are no drops or compulsory gaps. If only it was a bit longer.

Dazza's

A series of drops followed by a long section of roots to the track exit.

Double Drop

Short steep section of roots. Common Gravity Canterbury race finish.

Eastside Bush Track - Lower

Fade to CAP

Connector trail from the Victoria Park skid site down towards Christchurch Adventure Park.

Fenceline

Find flat-out speed in the downhill berms followed by a small forest with driftable dirt and a medium size drop to flat or roll out depending on your line choice.

Fenceline Traverse

Nice flowing single track, a great way to get to Cool Runnings, Fence line or The Big N. Similar to the Bowenvale Traverse Track, but with a couple of steeper sections.

Lava Flow

Start: Ride the Bowenvale Traverse track for approx 500m towards Victoria Park from the Mt Vernon end. The track starts on the right about 100m past the first cattle stop. Finish: Now connects into the Bowenvale bonus. Access: Ride from Victoria Park car park along Bowenvale Traverse track. The fastest access is from the end of the Bowenvale Traverse track. Signage: None at either end of the Summit Road where you access the ride, but the track is signposted at the start. Classed as a difficult ride, this track definitely lives up to its reputation with steep descents and incredibly rocky terrain. Make your way along a boulder strewn single track for approx 500m before launching into a steep descent which takes you into Bowenvale Valley. The gnarly 2-3 foot drops have easier routes, so don't be intimidated by this good piece of down hill action. Make sure you've got a good back tire or spare tubes as snake bites are common. A great track if you want to step up your down hilling skills away from the hustle and bustle of Victoria Park. The track passes through tussock land with great views into the Bowenvale Valley.

Macro's

Flowing section of Grade 3 track that links Shazza's to Eastside Bush Track. The trail has been built by the Port Hills Park Ranger Team and is still under construction but now rideable.
