Amazing single track through equally beautiful bush.

Tough trails but very well signposted and setup. Thumbs up to those with the vision to develop this park.

Great place to ride. Alot of improvement over the years.

Fantastic trail. Not as technical as ourimbah MTB but a good flowing xc trail. About 1h full xc at average pace

Awesome XC/Trail singletrack here at Awaba. Nicely maintained trail with markers that indicate what trial loop is kid friendly, beginner, intermediate and pro. All this is colour coded do I won't get too much into the detail on it, if you get confused what colour means what, just ask a local or rider there and they'll happily help you out. This trail is a nice flowy trail, not to demanding in terms of technical skill but endurance and stamina is a bonus due to this being more XC/Trail oriented and it having climbs all over the trail. Good descents, nice features like rock gardens, roots as well as berms and "an oversized pump track." Once you get there you'll understand. Be sure to pack enough water and one bottle may not be enough since the full trail is 12km. A hydration pack is something I would recommend if not bring a couple of filled up water bottles. Toilets are as you expect, pretty mediocre since there is no running water or plumbing so be sure to take a deep breath when doing a number 1 or 2. Bring hear and tools is a must on every ride and here as well, a spare inner tube would give good peace of mind and a pump is necessary. As for bike choice, Hardtails would be great here in fact I think it would shine for the first 3km but some rear shock absorption for the more bumpy descents and terrain would be helpful but not necessary as a Hardtail would do great on this trail. The trail is also a loop that goes around the car park so if you get lost, just keep moving forward and you'll eventually arrive back in the car park. Should you feel the need to cut your ride short and head back to the car for a breather, there are numerous short cuts back to the car park for the first 4/5km. Further into the trail your best bet is to do the 8km loop rather than the full 12km loop.
