Forest Explorer Bike Ride

Live, Laugh, Ride ... that's our motto! Step off the beaten track and experience the natural beauty of the Sunshine Coast. Enjoy a laugh with old friends or new, and enjoy this guided active adventure cycling tour.

Tour Highlights

Breathe in the fresh forest air and listen to nothing but the sounds of nature.

Sound relaxing? You bet!

What a great way to spend a few hours exploring the Sunshine Coast region by bike. This guided cycling tour of the Sunshine Coast takes you along a nice, wide trail through beautiful bushland abounding with bird song.

On this tour of the Sunshine Coast’s hidden-side, we ride through a Heritage-listed former rail tunnel, constructed over 100 years ago. This tour is not strenuous or fast paced: it’s about enjoying the moment.

For this bike tour we follow a short section on cycling paths, but it’s mostly riding forest trails. You’ll ride loose sand and gravel at times, so you need some basic bike experience. Steve is a qualified cycling coach so is there to give you help, support and guidance. There is a brief section on the ride back into the township of Mooloolah Valley where you will be on the side of quiet roads on a nice, wide cycling lane. Then it’s time for coffee and maybe a bite to eat in the local cafe or bakery to soak in the countryside Sunshine Coast atmosphere.
