Wild Mersey Mountain Bike Trails
Less than 15 minutes’ drive from the Spirit of Tasmania terminal in Davenport is one of Tasmania’s newer riding destinations. The Warrawee Reserve, a couple of kilometres from Latrobe, is home to the first stage of Wild Mersey Mountain Bike Trails. The network offers an awesome assembly of different riding experiences over a network of fewer than twenty kilometres, excellent trail-head facilities and a location bordered by the Mersey River that, during the warmer months, is a great place to wash o the dust with a relaxing post-ride swim!
