I am a Beginner. Is Barrington Bike Park suitable for me?
Yes. Barrington Bike Park's trail network offers riding adventures for beginner mountain bike riders. The green trails are suitable for mountain bike beginners, but you must have ridden a mountain bike before. We highly recommend having a look on our trails map and talking to our staff before booking. Always ride within your abilities and start on the green trails. Only progress to blue trails if you have the skills and experience to ride them safely. |

Non-riders can come to The Steps Barrington (where the car park and transition area are) as campers or day users. Bookings are essential. Visit www.thestepsbarrington.com.au/ for more information.
