The Grant Region in South Australia is home to exciting mountain bike trails for enthusiasts to explore, with the notable 38km Epic Mountain Bike Trail near Melrose in the Mid North being a highlight. This trail winds through Mount Remarkable National Park and private land adjacent to the park, offering riders stunning views of Black Range and the western flank of Mount Remarkable. It features a total of 1,500 meters of climbing elevation and a near-continuous six-kilometer descent.
The Epic Mountain Bike Trail is a significant part of the $10 million Remarkable Southern Flinders project, which aims to provide unique experiences in the region while upholding cultural respect and preserving sites of cultural significance. Designed and constructed by South Australian company TrailScapes, the trail ensures a high-quality and enjoyable experience for riders.
In addition to the Epic Mountain Bike Trail, the South Australian Government is enhancing cycling connections through a new State Bicycle Fund, promising riders picturesque scenery, challenging terrain, and an unforgettable experience in this stunning region.
