The Queenstown Bike Park is part of the Ben Lomond Recreational Reserve, managed by the Queenstown Lakes District Council, and is built on a steep pine-covered hill with spectacular scenery. It is 790 vertical metres above sea level with 500 vertical metres of uplift from the bottom to the top of the Skyline Queenstown operated Gondola. The trails vary from fast bermed and groomed trails to off-camber goat tracks, rock gardens, and natural single track. Runs are graded green, blue and black for beginners, intermediates and advanced, just like ski runs.
The park has been a labour of love for many people, with collaboration between the Queenstown Lakes District Council, the Queenstown Mountain Bike Club with it's many volunteers and Skyline Queenstown.
The Gondola opened for uplift of mountain bikes in 2011, giving bike enthusiasts the opportunity to get lift access to Queenstown Bike Park trails during the summer season.
