Eildon Mountain Bike Park



Eildon Mountain Bike Park

The Eildon trails have existed for twenty years, but only recently have they been upgraded and officially recognised. The two loops, and downhill trail have evolved from courses originally built for National cross-country and downhill competitions and hence many original sections are typically narrow and technical, with challenging switchbacks and steep pinch climbs. Murrindindi Cycle Club have created an easier loop within these trails, with options to challenge riders on sections of "Old School" single track. There is also a newly created green loop within the network. The downhill track has also had some flow modifications, however, it is still a challenging descent with some off camber corners and unavoidable features.

All the trails are well sign posted, easy to follow, and marked with trail difficulty ratings and directional arrows in a manner that allows riders to choose their route to suit their ability. At strategic points there are trail maps showing your location.

The main trails are:
Darlingford Loop - easy, 3km long, ascent 50m, descent 50m
A gentle introduction to the Eildon trails. Gradual climb with twists and turns linking into the rest of trail network, before flowing back down. This is a wider trail with easy to negotiate features.

Tea Tree Twisty - intermediate, 5.5km long, ascent 111m, descent 111m
A flowy trail through Eildon's tea tree bushland. Gentle climbs and descents with the occasional technical feature and a few tight sections. A and B line options on some features of the trail.

Sticks & Stones - difficult, 7.9km long, ascent 242m, descent 241m
Eildon's original trail. A more challenging ride, incorporating longer sections of the Tea Tree Twisty trail that then re-join the inner loop. Climbs on this trail are short and steep with flowy to fast descents. Trail is tight and technical in places with A and B line options on some features of the trail.

Karalika Express - difficult, 1.4km long, ascent 0m, descent 220m
This historic downhill trail features steep, fast descents, berms, jumps, natural rocky terrain and off camber corners. If that's not enough the finale links onto a four cross style track maximising the fun. Experienced riders only.

The trailhead and car park are situated adjacent to the cricket club and tennis courts. On arriving at Eildon continue through the roundabout and then take the first road on your right to John Coller oval.
