Elm Avenue, Armidale, New South Wales 2350
With its stunning scenery, bike-friendly culture and diversity of trails, Armidale is a great place to ride. From fast, flowing 29er heaven, to technical all-mountain and downhill runs, the region is fast becoming known as a ‘must ride’ MTB destination. This reputation has no doubt been earned due to the hard work of the local club; New England Mountain Bikers (NEMTB), whose members over the years have designed and built some truly first-class mountain bike-specific tracks in the Armidale State Forest, Fat Tyre Farm, UNE and in the city at Kookaburra Crest. With plenty to challenge novice and experienced riders alike, the trails mix fast single track with enough natural and man-made technical obstacles scattered around various A and B lines to keep things interesting.
