    This bike tour was excellent. Although the weather stopped us from descending from the peak of Mt Wellington, plan B was pretty good. Our guide Rich was very informative of the historical nature of the area and gave us clear instructions on our route down the hills. A very safe and enjoyable ride.

    This was such a cool experience for me and my sister as we have never done anything like it before. While it was cloudy at the top, totally reasonable and understandable, this activity was one of our highlights for our time in Tasmania. We still saw some awesome views along the way, spent time in the beautiful forests, and overall just felt safe and comfortable while doing so. Shout out to our guide Richard for making this an unforgettable experience!

    Such an incredible experience!! So much beauty to see and a fun bike ride as well. We decided not to ride the first part of the summit as it was a little icy and by the recommendation of our highly experienced guide Zoe. Once we got to the off road track it was go ahead and we got to stop along the way for some great historical briefs. Would highly recommend.

    What to expect

    Your tour starts at our South Hobart office. You'll receive a tour briefing, helmet and gloves. You'll also be introduced to your bike - brakes, gears, etc. We'll also check you have completed the waiver emailed to you upon booking. Then, you'll board our minibus and be shuttled to the summit of Mt. Wellington. The first ride is a descent on the asphalt road from the summit. Our minibus will follow the group down the road, providing support if required. If you prefer not to ride the road descent, you can opt to come down in our support vehicle. After the road descent, you'll take a 15-minute bus journey to the next ride. The second trail is off-road, and gently descends through temperate rainforest. The off-road trail is pretty smooth, wide, has a gentle gradient, and is easy to ride. The surface is mostly compacted dirt, with some looser gravel sections. Both rides just require good basic bike handling skills. It's downhill all the way, so only a basic fitness level is required. If the summit is closed due to bad weather, instead, we do a longer ride on the off-road rainforest trail. This ensures you still have a thrilling ride and experience the mountain's stunning nature.
