St Helen’s MTB Trails

Blue Tier to Bay of Fires Descent

Starting at the top of Blue Tier, this new trail takes you in the opposite direction to the current trail and heads to the East Coast via a gradually descending 44km trail.  The tour departs from Launceston at 7.30am and we will drive to the start of the trail via the spectacular north east.  We can also pick you up in Derby if you have been riding there beforehand.  Our guide will ride with you ensuring a hassle free experience.  The vehicle meets us at various points along the way with a break at the half way point to enjoy some lunch while admiring the view.  After lunch we continue on to the end of the trail right on the sand at Swimcart Beach.  If time allows we can incorporate some of the St Helens trails before returning to Launceston via the Fingal Valley.

Ask about our transport only options for larger groups. We can transport you to the start of the trail at Blue Tier, drop you off for your unaccompanied ride and then meet you at Swimcart Beach. This can be to/from Launceston or Derby.
