Glenorchy Mountain Bike Park- Dirt jumps, pump track and downhill jump trail open



This weekend Dirt Art opened up the brand new dirt jump park, pump track, and downhill jump trail at the Glenorchy Mountain Bike Park. The new jump park sets a new standard in the design and construction of public jump parks- proving that these facilities can be safe and durable, while providing an innovative and creative riding experience for everyone from beginner to professional riders. Work is well underway with the dual slalom track and 'Beginners Luck', the new beginner cross-country loop.

Glenorchy MTB park- jump park update




The Dirt Art team have spent the last week sculpting one of Australia's most progressive public dirt jump facilities.

An intermediate and beginner line will go in next week before we move on to works on the new dual slalom track. The new jumps, and all the new park works will be open in the next couple of weeks...
