Waitangi Mountain Bike Park
Opened in 2016, Waitangi Mountain Bike Park (WMBP) is one of Aotearoa’s top riding destinations. With over 50km of professionally built trails and more added regularly, it offers year-round riding for all ages and abilities.
The park is family-friendly and ideal for building skills and confidence. Trails range from scenic beginner loops to technical descents, cross-country routes, and flowing jump lines, all set in stunning native and pine forest just 4km from Paihia.
On-site services include bike hire from Paihia Mountain Bikes, offering quality full suspension and electric bikes for adults and kids, plus expert trail advice and mechanical support. You’ll also find Pikiniki Café at base — a great spot to grab a coffee or bite before or after your ride.
Trail development and maintenance is ongoing across the five zones. A Skills and Jump Park is currently under construction, offering riders a dedicated space to progress safely and confidently.
