We may be a snow lovers dream over winter, but we keep the good times rolling through to summer. Here at The Peak, we’re proud to be home to the Southern Hemisphere’s longest maintained mountain bike single-track, measuring 1,200 meters from top to bottom. We’re an alpine adventure playground for all.
