ecoTekkSC is here to help you create an unforgettable mountain biking experience in our sub-tropical backyard. Our region offers a true bush-to-beach exploit, with heavenly routes that allow you to find your flow in the morning and unwind with your toes in the warm sand in the afternoon.
The Sunshine Coast’s network of trails offers a wide range of riding to suit all levels of skill and adventure. You can challenge yourself on rooty, technical terrain surrounded by lush rainforests and the calls of black cockatoos, kookaburras, and whip birds. Or, you can cruise around our beautiful green, beginner trails amidst dense ferny groves and towering gums.
We have five top picks when it comes to mountain bike parks and forest trails, all within easy reach from the beach and major towns. From clean and easy “green” beginner paths like Ferny Forest to steep drops, gap jumps, and rock gardens that will require maximum focus, our local tracks offer it all. If you love wooden features and ramps, head to Sugar Bag Road. Or, if fun flow trails, tight turns, and ripping berms are more your style, check out Tewantin National Park, just on Noosa’s doorstep. For those who want to feel lost in nature, Parklands Conservation Park is the perfect destination. And for those who prefer to keep the rubber side up, you can pack a picnic and adventure on an open fire trail high above the beach at Mapleton National Park in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland.
The Ride On map is available for download to help guide you on your mountain biking bash. The Sunshine Coast has a keen and friendly local bike community, and you may find yourself engaging in cheeky trailhead bike banter while you pump up your tyres, lube your chain, clip up your helmet, and prepare to launch into an epic all-terrain adventure.
At ecoTekkSC, we are committed to providing you with a sustainable and environmentally friendly experience, so you can enjoy our breathtaking trails with the knowledge that you are supporting responsible business practices.
