Matairangi Mount Victoria bike track

We're building a new grade 3 intermediate downhill mountain bike track on Mount Victoria for bikers to enjoy.

About the project

Trails Wellington approached Wellington City Council in 2021 with a concept for a grade 3 intermediate flow track on the eastern side of Matairangi Mount Victoria.

After further design and public consultation, the track was approved by councillors in 2022. The work is funded by Trails Wellington and the Council will be overseeing the management of the project.

The track will provide a new riding experience for intermediate level riders who are not currently catered for in the area. It will also have features that more experienced riders can enjoy.
