    Vertigo’s ultimate full day adventure, the Bay of Fires trail, will leave you speechless as you ride from the dense Blue Tier temperate rainforest through to the stunning granitic Bay of Fires on Tasmania’s Eastern Coastline.

    Recommendation: Hire a Levo SL e-bike for this trail.

    We offer this service from Derby for groups (and minimum numbers), please enquire for availability.

    We’ve got two of the most talked about trails in one shuttle day that is most likely to have you exclaiming ‘that was the best ride I’ve ever had!’

    Beginning at the top of the stunning Blue Tier, the Iconic Bay of Fires trail starts off with a bang as it descends for 13kms through dense rainforest. This fast and poppy trail will have you screaming for more.

    And more you will get, after a short shuttle back up to the Blue Tier. The Blue Tier trail that has no peer, takes you on a grin inducing ride all the way to Weldborough in time for lunch.

    If you're in Derby for mountain biking these guys have got you sorted! We did Blue Tier+Atlas, local Black Stump and Bay of Fires shuttles. Great staff and service. All were very knowledgeable when it came to the trails. Will definitely be using them next time we come back to Tassie!
