This April and May we invite you to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Mākara Peak Mountain Bike Park by walking, running or biking our specially curated Tree Trail loop. Join one of our guided tours, or you can complete the loop anytime (from 4th April) by following the map and keeping an eye out for the special tree signage.

Participants will be guided along the Rimu and Miro trails, starting and finishing at the end of Saint Albans Avenue. The trail showcases significant native New Zealand tree species that have been planted over the past 25 years.

For those self-guiding along the Tree Trail, please be aware that Rimu and Miro are two way trails. Please also be considerate of other users when stopping to look at the trees.

The series of guided tours will be led by knowledgeable park volunteers with guest ecologists. This will be a chance to learn about the remarkable forest restoration that is underway within the park.

The guided tours will be held on:

•  Saturday 6 April, 3:30pm, walking tour.

•  Saturday 13 April, 10am, running tour.

•  Sunday 28 April, 10am biking tour. (Limited to 10 people)

• Saturday 11 May, 10am biking tour. (Limited to 10 people)

•  Saturday 25 May, 10am walking tour

Each tour will take around 1 hour. The loop is 3km long on easy grade 2 trails. The meeting point for all tours is the end of Saint Albans Avenue.
