Maydena

It’s the birthplace of mountain biking in Tasmania, a legend in its own time. Since opening in 2017, Derby has hosted the Enduro World Series multiple times. Its ‘hero dirt’ is the tactile terrain bikers dream of, looped around a natural bowl created by the gods of mountain biking. All trails lead to Derby – literally. There’s something for everyone, with 120 kilometres of trail. Rusty Crusty is a rolling warm-up, or get stuck straight into boulders, berms and descents on Flickity Sticks. There’s air on Air-Ya-Garn and panoramic views of the town on the steep and technical Trouty. An hour to the east of Derby is the equally renowned Blue Tier and peaceful, mesmerising trails through the myrtle forest. How We Roll You have our top-of-the-range expedition rig to yourself, all trail transfers and shuttles. We make personalised trail recommendations based on your riding style, and stay flexible as your experience of the place expands. Accommodation is private, self-catering and beautifully appointed.

Our east coast tours feature the stacked loops of St Helens and the Bay of Fires cross-country trail from mountains to sea (dependent on winter conditions in the upper reaches). Nowhere else mixes the renowned Tasmanian dirt with dazzling views over an ancient coastline. This is our island showing off a little. The eight stacked loops south of St Helens have it all. Easy Townlink is pretty much what it says on the tin. Hard-pedaling Dreaming Pools and the descent shreds from the top of Loila Tier are more demanding. These trails ride well all year round, and deliver spectacular ocean views and a bucketload of ozone. What’s not to like. Into the mix we add the epic Bay of Fires wilderness trail. 42 km starting on the Blue Tier plateau 600 metres above sea level, winding through granite boulders and sup-alpine forest to spectacular Swimcart Beach. If the upper trail closes due to winter weather, there’s still 20 km of epic trail through mountain and coastal terrain.
