Cycling and BMX Tracks throughout Rotorua
Rotorua is one of New Zealand’s premier mountain biking destinations, built around the Whakarewarewa Forest — a network of purpose-built trails ranging from beginner-friendly loops through towering redwoods to technical enduro and downhill tracks that host international events. Skyline Gravity Park adds gondola-accessed downhill riding above the city, while the world-class Waipa BMX Track has produced Olympic-level riders and is open to the public. The Dodzy Skills Park near the Redwoods offers a dedicated progression space for beginners and younger riders. Rotorua also hosts Crankworx Rotorua — one of the world’s biggest mountain bike festival events — bringing elite riders and spectators to the Whakarewarewa Forest each year.
