Health & Safety

Do you know how to ride safely on the trails? Check out the Mountain Bikers Code for tips on how to look after yourself and others.

Due to the nature of our trails, we recommend riding a mountain bike that has disc brakes and suspension designed for downhill trails.

All mountain bikers must wear a certified mountain bike helmet. We recommend wearing a full-face helmet and gloves when riding.

We operate a team of Dirt Patrollers who respond to injuries on the mountain. If you are injured on the trail and unable to move, you can first call our emergency number: +64 3 443 1576. This is located on the back of your lift pass. Alternatively, flag down a staff member or another rider who can notify the lift operator at the bottom of the lift. Provide them with the injured person’s location and the nature of the injury (if known). If you are able to return to the Base Area, please visit the medical centre to see Patrol.

Want to ride with the kids? ‘Shotgun’ and ‘Do Little’ mountain bike seats can be used at the Bike Park; however, we recommend sticking to the Green Trails and taking it easy. Please ensure that the seat is set up correctly and well fitted to the bike.

Looking for trail progression or flow vs technical trails? Check out the trail map with all our trail options.

We have various signage placed on the trails to inform you of what lies ahead. Examples include trail name/ grade, merge, drop, and closed.

"Really awesome bike trails!"

Best example of a park with the 'Whistler' model done right - awesome skiing in the winter and a fully complete bike park in the summer. Love the ride down to the Cardrona pub too!

E-bike users are also welcome, as long as it's full-suspension. We ask e-bike users to load their own bikes onto our lifts.

Kids are more than welcome at Cardrona! We recommend full-suspension bikes with disc brakes for riding at Cardrona - please check in with Patrol if you're not sure about your kids’ bike on our trails.  

Kids facilities include:  

  • Beginner flow trail on the learners' slope (next to the tunnel)  

  • Pump track and skills area outside The Lounge  

  • Child bike lessons with the Cardrona Bike School - highly recommended for beginner and intermediate downhillers

  • Giant games outside The Lounge for boredom busters at lunch time 

  • If you're not confident loading your kids on the chairlift, ask the lifties for help or jump into gondola cabin 

Definitely! We have a bike school which helps sharpen your skills in summer. Partnering with Treadmark, we host specialized coaching programmes that cater to everyone, from beginner to advanced riders. You can book lessons with Treadmark directly.

我们很喜欢小狗,但为了保障所有客人的安全和体验,在运营中的山地车公园区域内(即对公众开放的所有山地车和卡丁车路线)不允许携带狗进入。

狗狗可以在指定区域活动,但必须全程牵绳或放置在笼内。这些区域包括停车场、山脚基地和步行步道。请务必自行清理宠物排泄物,并尊重他人对宠物的感受。

只有经过认证的残障辅助犬,以及由 Cardrona 员工或救援人员带领的工作犬,才是上述规定的例外。
