Southstar has launched uplift charters for Mountain Bikers in Cougar Park, Tokoroa. 45mins drive from Rotorua. The charters are for groups of 2-13 riders. We have two vehicles available to charter - the iconic ex-Army Southstar V8 Landrover - uplift's 7 riders, and the modern Yamaha Viking uplifts 5 riders. Charter cost is $140/hr for either vehicle with most groups doing 3-4 hour sessions.

Cougar Park has 10 shuttleable descents with a range of grades 2-5. It' a quick turn-around, so it's possible to ride all 10 in a 3hr session, and hit your favourites twice with a 4hr session.

Book by calling or texting Jeff on 021619954

Bookings available Friday/Saturday/Sunday, 9am, 12:30pm, 4pm

Group Meeting Point: Public Parking at end of Newell Road, Tokoroa

A portion of uplift income is passed on to the local and used for trail maintenance.

3x Landrover shuttles operating today at Tokoroa's Cougar Park for the official opening of 4 new trails. Grades 2, 3, 4 and 5 - something for everyone. $5/uplift with a $500 donation tab from the Tokoroa MTB Club meaning riders can get 2 uplifts each free until the tab is used up. BBQ running from midday. Shuttles running 10am till 3pm.

Access the new trails fastest from Newell Road end. Or ride through Cougar Park from the main soccer ground entrance off Mossop Road. The trailhead for the new trails is near the top of Kahu climb at the summit of Cougar Rd. The Trailforks App has this existing Kahu climb, but not the new trails yet. It's all open terrain so you can see the trails once you're there.

Some of the Trailcrew will be there. Be sure to give them a pat on the back as this is some of their best work yet.
