THE PARK
Mountain bikers, get ready for the adventure of a lifetime in Whangamata!
The Whangamatā MTB Park is located within a commercial forest managed by Rayonier Matariki Forests. Forestry operations are frequent, making safety a top priority. While riding in the park, please pay close attention to all signage and closures.
We have an epic network of trails in close proximity to some of the best surfing, fishing and diving in Aotearoa and are part of a destination experience for visitors, and our local community alike. The Park operates with a strong sense of values, including:
• Whanaungatanga (family connection and sense of place)
• Kotahitanga (unity of purpose and collaboration)
• Kaitiakitanga (guardianship and participation)
We ask you to respect the cultural significance and mana whenua of this area. Being here is a special privilege. Please understand and honor these values during your visit.

MEMBERSHIP
As a mountain biker, you know how important it is to have great trails to ride.
By becoming an annual or visitor member of the Whangamata Mountain Bike Park, you’ll be supporting a volunteer organisation that promotes a positive and healthy lifestyle and represents the interests of mountain bikers in the Whangamata area and beyond.
Your membership helps keep the park operational as a high-quality community asset providing a safer and more positive experience, so why not join today?
As part of our current lease agreement, you actually can’t ride in the park without a membership, however, if the cost is a barrier and funds are tight, please get in touch with the club and will come up with a confidential solution to get you riding.
A portion of our donations received go towards helping us sponsor memberships.
HIVEPASS
Our new membership app is now available on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
The app, called Hivepass, allows riders to easily join and renew their membership with WMTBP and access important information on the go. Please note that this app is a separate system from our old membership database, so all members will need to create a new account to use it.
Not only can you use the app on your mobile device, but there is also a website link that allows you to join on a computer. If you belong to another organization that uses the Hivepass platform, such as Bike Taupo, you may already be logged in to Hivepass and will need to select “Join Other Organizations” from the side menu and then choose “WMTBP.”
Keep in mind that your membership on the app will expire 12 months from the date of joining, and you will receive an email from Hivepass to renew your membership when it’s time. Don’t forget to have proof of your membership handy, as it is required for riding in permit areas. Download the app today and enjoy all the benefits of being a member of WMTBP!
DONATIONS
WE NEED YOUR HELP
Our bike park is a fantastic place for mountain bikers to enjoy the great outdoors and challenge themselves on exciting trails. However, maintaining these trails takes a lot of time and resources, and any donation to our park would be greatly appreciated. Your support would help us to continue to provide a high-quality experience for all of our visitors, and ensure that the trails are well-maintained and safe to ride on. By donating, you would be contributing to the ongoing success of our park, and helping to preserve this valuable resource for mountain bikers.
We truly appreciate any support that you can provide, and we thank you in advance for your generosity.
