Biking Rotorua’s Giant Redwood Forests

The Whakarewarewa Forest is a place where you can escape and unwind . . . or escape and energize! This Giant Redwood Forests has trails that weave their way under towering forest canopies of redwood, radiata, douglas fir, eucalyptus, and larch. Riders are rewarded with stunning views through gaps in the forest of lakes, thermal activity and the looming bulk of Mt Tarawera. Take off deep into the forest, feel dwarfed by nature or just perhaps find quiet…. relax, there are a myriad of trails to choose. Alternatively with a high performance mountain bike, take speed through the trees on the undulating network of purpose built trails; some are suitable for first timers but there are many suitable for advanced riders looking for extreme action with cross country or downhill.
