Haven Mountain Bike Park is a 60 acre block of land just 30 minutes south of Christchurch
nestled in beautiful Banks Peninsula.
The McQueens Valley Mountain Bike Club Inc was formed in June 2006 with the intent to build a
world class mountain bike park in a restored native forest on this land.
This long-term vision will culminate in the land being available for the people of Canterbury
to access intermediate level trails amongst native trees and plants on a historical piece of
Banks Peninsula rock.
Currently the club has almost 60 dedicated members from a diverse range of backgrounds but
we are united by the desire to build great mountain bike trails and to give something
back to the land and the cycling community.
Most of the land was cleared up to 5 years ago for farming purposes but was never utilised
and as a consequence scrub, in the form of broom, wilding pines and small patches of gorse,
have taken over amongst the native trees and bushes that are regenerating.
To find out what the club's been up to recently check out the journal
and tracks pages.
