Description
I will guide you on this half-day of mountain biking in the Hollybank Forest Reserve in Tasmania, near Launceston, where we will ride and wind our way around some of the best mountain biking trails in Australia, with the trails for people of all levels of ability taking us through truly awesome and stunning native forests and bushland that inhabit this special part of Tasmania.
Hollybank Forest Reserve is located on the Australian island state of Tasmania, just a 20 minute drive from the city of Launceston, and is one of the most popular outdoor areas in the state due to its tranquil and peaceful surroundings, and its increasing reputation as a mountain biking hotspot.
Our adventure begins when we meet in Launceston, before making the short journey to the forest reserve.
Once there we will run through all relevant safety gear and information, before hitting the myriad of trails available to us.
Throughout the half-day we can ride along as many of the trails as we like, with both short and long tracks that cater to everyone, from beginners to experts.
The undoubted highlight for many is the opportunity to tackle the mighty 10km Juggernaut Trail, a tricky descent that challenges and pushes even the most experienced riders.
There is a reason this area is one of the most popular picnic areas in Tasmania, as the scenery is as tranquil and postcard-pretty as one imagines, the huge trees of the abundant lush green forest providing a sumptuous backdrop to proceedings.
This half-day trip will make you want to explore even more of the epic mountain biking that Tasmania has to offer.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
