Cycling
Cycling is an effective, healthy and environmentally friendly form of transport, while mountain biking is a popular and fun way to explore our natural environment.
We have ambitious plans to improve cycling conditions and encourage more people to get on their bikes and explore our beautiful region.

Discover 3 unique headlands and 5 amazing beaches on the Woolgoolga Coastal Loop(PDF, 2MB) . The track provides tranquil locations with spectacular views. You are sure to find your own slice of the north coast for that quick break, a swim and maybe a picnic lunch.
Cows With Guns bike track (or 'Cows') is on the south side of Pine Creek and is the venue for most of the Coffs Harbour mountain bike club events. Whilst the area is generally flat there is enough undulation in the track to create some good flow.
Sawmill is situated in Pine Creek State Forest, just a 30 minute drive south of Coffs Harbour. Situated on the north side of Pine Creek it is a slightly more challenging trail network compared to Cows With Guns. For more information go to The Sawmill trail page.
