Jonathan 4 August 2019

Great day - really good guide - Lee - who was informative and supportive.

Lofty Descent - a fun half day

Craig 9 April 2018

What a great experience - firstly bikes good, tour leader great and the first stop at the nature park up close to native animals a good start to the ride. The descent was steady and only steep in a couple of places which was great for an enjoyable ride. We had the option to walk down those places but managed it (carefully :)) The track was a typical carved bush road so you had to keep your eyes open but mostly nothing too difficult so you had time to enjoy the bush views on the way down. We had a variety of ages from 28 thru to 60 in our group of 5 and we all handled it OK. You need to be able to ride confidently but not an expert bush basher - there are other tours for that. We had a great day and ended up with a good ride through quiet city streets back to the van. Recommended for reasonably fit, competent riders.

Scenic scramble down the mountain

Nerida 6 June 2017

Three of us with no mountain biking experience rolled down the hill to Adelaide with our guide, Lee, keeping us bumping, slithering and laughing all the way down. The Cleland Park was great to visit with hand reared bandicoots and potoroos coming up to us from the undergrowth unsolicited. The views on the way down from the summit were crystal clear with lots of interesting land forms to see. The ride through the Conservation Park showed us what the natural forest in the Adelaide Hills was like before clearing for farming. The ride through the suburbs and parkland of Adelaide were no less interesting with their domestic architecture and urban design. I had great fun and learned lots.

Fun and friendly experience

Freya 26 July 2015

The ride was heaps of fun and our guide was friendly and patient.

Totally Awesome

Trish96 26 January 2015

I am totally in awe of the fact that I mountain biked from the top of Mount Lofty all the way down to South Tce, Adelaide. I am in my fifties and with no experience of riding on trails but it was totally manageable if you can ride a bike confidently. The views, seeing koalas and just being out there doing it was fantastic. Ian our guide was great and gave instruction on what to expect all the way down and how to cycle the few tricky spots. I walked 100 metres on a tricky spot and that was totally fine to do that. My advice is just go out there and do it.

Well worth the money

MattBev 14 December 2014

It was a well run, down hill mountain bike tour through from Mt Lofty summit finishing up a Victoria Pk racecourse with a stop at Clealand national park to feed the wildlife and have some morning tea. The down hill tracks were great and you could get a bit of speed up if you wish and have a bit of fun. The bikes were in great condition and were great to ride.

A great day out and introduction to mountain biking

Hedge66 5 May 2014

A good guide and introduction to mountain biking. The equipment was of a good standard and suited the ride well. The track had 3 trickier parts but nothing too scary to a beginner. The pace was a little slow but catered for all in the group. With gravity doing most of the work it wasn't too strenuous! I would recommend the experience to friends.

An exhiilarating day!

Maxi59 2 November 2013

A really nice day!
