AFTER spending most of 2020 under lockdown restrictions, there is nothing better than pulling the bike out of the shed and heading to Falls Creek for a weekend of alpine single track.
Falls Creek Mountain Bike Park is 40km of world class gravity trails, high in the rooftop of the Victorian Alpine National Park. Designed and built by World Trail, this series of tracks can be enjoyed by newbies to the sport through to the most experienced riders.
Over 10km of the trail network is deliberately built friendly for those new to mountain biking. The Green Line, from the summit to the lake, is perfect to learn the ropes (and figure out the difference between a berm and a roller), and fully accessible by the shuttle service. Come as a family and have a picnic by the lake or cycle back to the village for a delicious gourmet lunch at one of the mountain vista cafés.
This summer, Falls will also be stepping it up for the advanced riders, with a full-time trail crew regularly throwing in new features to keep you on your ‘pedals’. Blue Dirt shuttles will also be there as usual to save your thighs and get you up the hill, albeit in a socially distanced manner (operations to be confirmed soon).
Falls Creek will be ready and waiting your visit when the time is right!
