About this tour
Tackle Smithfield's legendary rainforest trail network outside Cairns on a guided four-hour mountain bike adventure. Queensland's oldest and most respected bike park stretches across 60km of colour-coded tracks—green, blue and black runs—that cut through vine-draped jungle, ford crystal streams and crest ridges overlooking the Great Barrier Reef. Your guide navigates you through the best terrain for your skill level, revealing why this place remains Australia's benchmark for serious riding.
Highlights
- 60km trail network through pristine rainforest canopy
- Ridge-top views across Great Barrier Reef horizon
- Three difficulty grades: green, blue, black runs
- Stream crossings and technical jungle descents
- E-mountain bikes included, helmet provided
What to expect
Expect a full-on physical session. Your guide will assess your ability and route you through appropriate trails—beginners stick to flowing green tracks, intermediates tackle technical blue sections, advanced riders push black diamond terrain. You'll spend most time pedalling rather than talking, navigating tight jungle singletrack, clearing stream beds and climbing steady ridge sections. The rainforest is dense and humid; views open up periodically from high points overlooking the reef. Trails can be rooty and loose after rain. This is genuine mountain biking, not a scenic cruise.
Good to know
Bring your own water—bottles aren't supplied. You need moderate to strong fitness and bike handling skills; this isn't beginner-friendly despite green-rated options. The park sits near public transport if you're not hiring a car. Avoid this tour with spinal issues, pregnancy, or cardiovascular concerns.
