Starting in National Park village, this ride is one of our personal favourites.
A short easy climb through the Erua Forest leads you to panoramic views of the upper Retaruke valley ahead and the volcanoes of the Tongariro National Park behind. On a clear day, you can see all the way to Mount Taranaki to the west!
From here you descend down though native bush and farmland into the Retaruke valley and to the shuttle vehicle.
With a 17km downhill and trails along a gravel road, this is definitely one of the best mountain bike rides in New Zealand.
