Highlands Trails

Highlands Trails A mountain bike club based in the Southern Highlands of NSW. Affiliated with AusCycling. Trail-building and advocacy. Mountain bike races.

Responsible for the mountain bike trails in Wingello State Forest and at Welby. Highlands Trails is a mountain bike club that began more than a decade ago as a trail advocacy and trail building organisation, based in Bundanoon in the Southern Highlands. It has been responsible for the development and maintenance of the mountain bike trail network in Wingello State Forest, and is currently recoveri

ng and redeveloping that network following the Morton Bushfire in January 2020. In June 2022, the mountain bike section of Southern Highlands Cycling Club (SHCC) split with the road and track section, and joined with Highlands Trails. Highlands Trails will now run club mountain bike races in the Southern Highlands of NSW. These will be run by the same team of volunteers that have been running the SHCC mountain bike events in 2021/22. Initially, these will utilise the public trails at Welby, and private trail networks at Penrose and Fitzroy Falls. When Wingello State Forest reopens, events will also be run at Wingello.

Lady Laps are continuing by popular demand!

Initially started to make the most of daylight savings, there is now a dedicated group of women who love getting together and riding trails. Alternating between our trails at Welby and Wingello, Lady Laps boosts skills and confidence, whilst also building positive relationships that last beyond the singletrack.

New Lap times are an hour earlier, but you will want to bring lights with you to make the most of the trails as the sun goes down.
