EAGlE MOUNTAIN BIKE PArKThe rehabilitation of this disused quarry site and the subsequent development of Eagle Mountain Bike Park is an initiative of the State Government of South Australia.

The project has been made possible with the ongoing support and collaboration of volunteers, Mountain Bike clubs, Local Councils, State Government agencies and various other organisations.

The Park has been developed to cater for a variety of mountain bike riding disciplines, styles and abilities ranging from gentler gradient beginner trails to highly technical and physically demanding downhill and cross country trails, as well as a skills development, jumps and 4x area.

Given the high conservation value of the Park, it provides an important strategic biodiversity corridor between Cleland Conservation Park and Brownhill Creek Recreation Park.

Please enjoy the Park and keep trails open by setting a good example of environmentally sound and socially responsible mountain biking.
