The Timber Trail is a two day mountain bike ride through Pureora forest from Pureora Village to Ongarue, near Taumarunui. Total distance is 85km and the trail is graded 2-3 (Easy - Intermediate). Enjoy majestic native forest, spectacular suspension bridges built especially for the trail and the rich history of this region.
Free camping is available at Piropiro Flats - about half way along the trail at the 40 km mark. There is road access for vehicles to this campsite. It is a very large grassy clearing with long drop toilets provided. The only water supply is from the nearby stream. There are plans to build a lodge here for the cycle trail in the future. The cache is a 200 ml sistema container.
