Campout - Indoor Mountain Biking

  • Ray's Indoor Mountain Bike Park (map)

Want to go mountain biking but think it’s too cold in December? You can come with us at Ray’s Indoor Mountain Bike Park!

This is a three-storey disused warehouse that has been converted into a three-storey mountain biking course! It has many hills, plus a speciality skills area with narrow paths (between 24” and 6” wide) so it has a wide variety of activities and something for every skill-level !

Ray’s has bikes for rent, so you don’t need to bring yours.

Overnight camping will be at Camp Manatoc, where we went for Summer Camp this year.
