The Perenuka mountain bike park is a little marvel, lots of fun, and quite unique. The trails meander around a paddock with stunning views over Lake Te Anau and the mountains of Fiordland.
First up you ride up through trees alongside the Sinclair Road and out onto the paddock. That trail is called Rattle Ya Dags. (!) A nice climbing trail called Ewe Turn then leads up to the top of the hill. Savour the view for a moment then you could take Wazzamatagauri along the ridge to Elastrator and along the valley and back to the top of the hill on Wuffler. They are easy or intermediate trails. Auger is a good track to go down and Woolly Jumper is even better if you like a bit of air. It's a little more challenging and you get to ride over the top of a car. Woohoo! The Pork Pie trail also has a car feature! It's a little bike park with a big sense of humour. Really nice riding.
There is only about 8km of trails in the Perenuka bike park but don't go past it. There is no other bike park like it. My favourite trails were Woolly Jumper and Auger. You can return to the top of the hill from both of them on Wuffler. They're worth several circuits. Pork Pie is great fun too.
