Noosa Biosphere Trails e-Mountain Bike Tour - Guided

The experience runs from 9am to 2pm, roughly 4 to 5 hours including transport to the hinterland start point and back. Expect about 3 hours of riding, broken up with stops at lookouts and for photos. It depends on the route, how fast your group rides and how long we stop.

No. This tour runs on trail networks exempt from Queensland e-bike age and licence requirements, so anyone can enjoy it, subject to our own skill and age requirements.

Prior off-road riding experience on loose surfaces is recommended.

This tour is best suited to riders with a good level of confidence on a bike. If you’re unsure whether it is suitable for you, we recommend getting in touch so we can help guide you toward the best option.

Don’t worry, that’s exactly why all of our MTB tours are private experiences.

The ride is tailored specifically to your group, your pace, and your riding ability, so there’s no pressure to keep up with strangers or worry about holding anyone back.

That’s perfectly fine. Many guests are new to mountain biking but are confident riders on a bike.

Our guides are experienced MTB coaches and can help introduce you to off-road riding while tailoring the route and terrain to suit your confidence level and experience.

Yes. All of our MTB and eMTB experiences are private tours.

This allows us to tailor the ride to your group’s ability, confidence level, fitness, and preferred riding style. It also creates a more relaxed experience where riders can progress at their own pace without feeling pressured by larger mixed-ability groups.

The Noosa Biosphere features a diverse mixture of terrain including flowing purpose-built mountain bike trails, compact dirt surfaces, rainforest singletrack, gravel roads, forest management tracks, rolling hinterland hills, and quieter country backroads.

Depending on the specific tour and route selected, riders may experience lush subtropical rainforest, open farmland, ridgeline lookouts, wetlands, creek crossings, and coastal pathways, often all within the same ride.

Due to bike sizing, riders should generally be approximately 150cm or taller.

Guests under 18 must be accompanied by a parent, grandparent or legal guardian. If you are looking to book for a younger or shorter rider, please contact us to discuss suitable options.

We recommend comfortable athletic clothing, enclosed shoes (compulsory), water, sunscreen, and sunglasses.

No. As these are private tours, you can choose not to ride an eMTB.

However, the routes are designed around the capabilities of electric mountain bikes, so rides without eMTBs often need to be shortened significantly and may miss some of the best sections, climbs, and lookouts.

In all honesty, very few riders who choose to ride an analogue bike finish the tour thinking it was a great decision.

Yes, provided your bike is suitable for the tour, safe, legal, and has sufficient battery range and capability for the planned route.

Due to the elevation gained on many routes, bikes with batteries smaller than 700Wh may struggle to comfortably complete some experiences depending on rider fitness, assist mode usage, and riding style.

The minimum group size is 2 riders.

Solo riders are still encouraged to contact us to discuss possible options, as we may be able to accommodate you on existing departures or private experiences.
