A grade 3+ trail, riders will navigate rocky ridges, river crossings and steep downhill descents as they explore middle earth scenery. That’s right, the track begins in the limestone landscape made famous by Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit movies, and is a huge highlight for visitors to the area.
Ground thick with tree roots, shallow streams, and limestone outcrops provide a glimpse into the diverse terrain, while spectacular views over Takaka are revealed as the trail exits the boundary of the National Park. The classic downhill single-track, originally built in the 1850s, can be experienced as a loop, continuing south on East Takaka Road and back up Takaka Hill, or one-way with a shuttle transfer at the other end.
The track can be accessed at the end of Canaan Road, near the top of Takaka Hill.
