Make the most of the Mystic trails these holidays
Located in the picturesque town of Bright in Victoria’s High Country, Mystic Park is a community-run bike park with some of the best shreds in Australia – regardless of your ability.
It’s no secret mountain biking is one of the reasons many of our visitors make the three plus hour drive from Melbourne to Bright and as you may have heard on the grapevine, the future of Mystic Mountain Bike Park has been a little uncertain in recent times so a number of changes have been put in place to protect this MTB lovers playground.
Here’s the essentials of what you need to know.
From October 24, 2022, all riders entering Mystic Park, Bright will need to sign a waiver and buy a membership to ride in the park. The pay-to-play model is required to ensure this amazing MTB park remains open to the public.
The bike membership will have three levels of membership, including:
- Annual membership for $95,
- Two-week membership for $55
- single day Pedal-In membership for $15,
- or $25 for a single day membership for riders using a commercial shuttle.
- An annual Family Membership will also be available covering one adult and up to four kids under 15 years old, for $150.
- An extra adult can be added to this membership for a further $45.
- To take care of the younger individual riders, we also have a discounted Youth Membership for $65 a year.
From Monday, October 24 anyone accessing Mystic Park without a membership will be on private land in breach of ACP permission and placing the ongoing future of the park at risk.
Private bike shuttling will be paused from Monday, 24 October to limit the number of vehicles in the park and maximise safety for all users. Commercial Shuttle operator, Blue Dirt, will be extending their days of operation to 7 days per week to enable alternative shuttle options.
