Off the beaten TRACK
Kyogle and its villages have a huge amount to offer cyclists of all ages and abilities. Along with the Kyogle Mountain Bike Forest offering some of the best trails in NSW, the Kyogle area also enjoys a unique combination of peaceful rural roads, stunning landscapes and welcoming country communities. All of these attributes combine to create cycling adventures that are challenging, rewarding, enriching and, most of all, unforgettable. A ride around Kyogle can traverse rich alluvial flats covered in swaying crops or dotted with inquisitive cows, sharp volcanic ridges striking hundreds of metres into the sky or ancient rainforests ringing with bird calls. Best of all, whether the ride tests your skills on the trails of the Mountain Bike Forest or challenges your endurance climbing a rainforest ridge, at the end of the day the effort will be rewarded with a smile, a cold beverage and a hearty meal in a genuine country village.

KYOGLE MOUNTAIN BIKE FOREST The Kyogle Mountain Bike Forest is gaining a reputation as a great place to kick up some dirt. The park offers fun, flowing trails on rich, dark loam soil just minutes from the centre of Kyogle in the peaceful Boorabee State Forest. The trails are suitable for all levels of rider ability with green- and blue-level gravity and climbing trails plus a black-grade jumps trail for experienced air junkies, and it’s all free. All the trails end near the same central location; trails are arranged so that the easier trails are near the gate, and the harder tracks are further away so riders can progress through the park as their skills develop. The central hub means riders with different levels of skill can enjoy the park together as they can choose a trail that suits their skills and meet at the hub.
