SaveSet within the privately owned, productive working Tangoio Forest, Pan Pac MTB Park is built and maintained by Hawkes Bay Mountain Bike Club. It is located in the Esk Valley, a short drive north of Napier.
Our park was extensively damaged by Cyclone Gabrielle in February 2023, leading to the permanent closure of the old Mill Block tracks. We have now established an entirely new network of tracks in the Waipunga and Tait blocks, and restored the original tracks in the Replanted Block.
There are tracks suitable for all ages and abilities- ranging from grade 2 to 6.
The Waipunga Block tracks are out in the open, amongst pine saplings, with amazing views of the Esk Valley, the sea, and Napier. Tait Block is mostly shaded by young pine forest.
The Replanted Block tracks are amongst mature pines (great on a hot summers day), and best suited to more experienced riders.
As it is a privately owned, commercial plantation forest, a permit is required for access. Obtain your permit by joining the HBMTBC www.hawkesbaymtb.co.nz
No dogs, smoking, fires or BBQs allowed.
