Sunshine Coast

There is no need for your bike to get lonely and unused in the shed when you can ride the Sunshine Coast 365 days of the year.

Come marvel at the incredible beauty of the sea while enjoying the lush forests in the mountains. The array of different terrain accommodates every style and level of rider. There is everything from adrenaline pumping downhill to technical cross-country. The Southern Sunshine Coast is known for its smooth natural flow trails where you glide effortlessly through spectacular scenery. And the Northern Sunshine coast is notorious for its phenomenal XC through vibrant old-growth forests.

The Southern Sunshine coast is only a short 40-minute ferry ride from Horseshoe Bay with trails easily accessible by car or bike. Sprockids Park is minutes from the ferry and boasts fantastic trails for all levels of riders. If you continue on to Roberts Creek you will find fast and fun pedal-up or shuttle-access downhill tracks. Or if you are a cross-country enthusiast, head to west to Sechelt.

Travel a little further north to discover hundreds of kilometres of singletrack and no crowds. Powell River has challenging, technical and fast trails through Coast Mountains rainforest. Maintained by a thriving scene of committed local riders and trailbuilders, Powell River mountain biking trails are blowing visitors away with the amazing quality and volume of singletrack. Head further north to Powell River for more technical terrain.

Biking on the Coast is largely community-driven with active clubs such as the Sunshine Coast Cycling Club (SCC), the Sunshine Coast United Mountain Bikers (SCUMB) and Powell River Cycling Association (PRCA). If you follow the freeride scene, you may be familiar with the Coastal Crew. The team of friendly bikers have successfully spread their passion for biking through visual media and are now concentrating on their year round bike park, Coast Gravity Park.

Come for the day or stay a while and fall in love with the enchanting coastal communities. Aside from biking there is a strong artist community that shines through the vibrant towns. There are many quaint places to stay and art galleries to visit. The Sunshine Coast is a delightful experience that should not be missed.
