Waitekohekohe Recreational Park on Thompsons Track, 15 minutes south of Katikati, offers Mountain Bike Trails, Horse Trails, Walking Tracks and swimming holes.

There’s plenty on offer for mountain bikers, with five new trails graded two to four (about 1hour of riding).

The Mountain Bike Trail Carpark is situated at 360 Thompsons Track, Katikati.

The trails in this area have been built by Rob Metz, the founder of Zerode.  Rob has many years of experienced mountain biking and has constructed trails that are a pure pleasure to ride.

​Starting with a beginner loop, grade 1, this track weaves its way through the small pines.

​From there head to the grade 2, 3 and 4 trails which are all downhill tracks.  Riders need to either make use of the forestry tracks to head back to the top of the trails or weave your way via the grade 3 uphill track.

​Riding all trails will take you about an hour.  There are plans underway to construct additional grade four tracks through the native bush area.

​There is no access to the Mountain Bike Trails from the equestrian area. Please head to 360 Thompsons Track for access.

The Equestrian Trails Carpark is situated at 252 Thompsons Track, Katikati.

Most of the equestrian trails are on the existing forestry tracks with some additional trails constructed to enable looping tracks.

Unique to the network is the Jumping Alley, this consists of 12 jumps made from an old pine that was cut down. This track is an out and back so care must be taken when using.
Another great feature is the galloping track. This is an uphill trail where you can extend your horse and have a great workout.

The trail network provides riders with up to two hours of riding on the variety of tracks and trails. There are also a couple of river crossings to enjoy.
