Land OwnerOuter Bay of Islands Development Committee
Coppermine DH is a hiking trail located in the outer Bay of Islands. It is maintained by the Outer Bay of Islands Development Committee. It is a hiking-preferred trail and has some awesome steep shoots and technical features. It's about a 2 hour hike-a-bike to get to the top, with some pretty incredible views of the Bay of Islands. The ride down is about 20 to 30 minutes, stopping for breaks throughout.
Access Info

Disclaimer
Trail has some very technical descents and is hiking-preferred. Please give right of way to hikers!

Drove all the way from BC, and let me say if this trail isn't on your MTB bucket list you'd better give your head a shake.

So access wise is it a direct hike up the trail,then back down the way you came up?
