Conveniently located within Hamilton’s city limits, Hamilton Mountain Bike Track (also known as Pukete Mountain Bike Park) in Pukete Farm Park is great for riders looking for something close to the city, cramming lots of track into a relatively small, centralised area.

The largely flat track is surrounded by native tree plantings. Its easy contour is suitable for beginners and families as well as more advanced riders who will appreciate the track’s tight twists and turns, table top jump and the more rugged northern corner.

Pukete Farm Park links with other nearby cycling tracks such as Te Awa – The Great New Zealand River Ride and the shared Hamilton City River Rides & Walks.

Highlights:

- Ten minutes drive from central Hamilton
- Suitable for riders of all skill levels
