DESCRIPTION
This is a self-guided ride. We meet you near the start of the trail, and give you a comprehensive rider briefing before you set off.
This is a very hard ride for the average person. With nearly 900 vertical meters of climbing over 30km, this ride naturally comes with lots of steep up and downhills. We recommend this ride for confident riders only, and we recommend our e-bikes to get the most enjoyment out if it. There is no vehicle access to this trail, so if something happens to you, emergency help is limited and difficult. If you do ride this, take it easy and enjoy!!
An alternate ride with even better views is the Hanging Rock trail, our most popular ride.
### BMBA self guided tours and hire require minimum numbers for the day to go ahead. The booking system will send a pending order email confirmation upon your online booking. When minimum bookings are received, bookings/rides will be automatically confirmed. Regardless of whether ride goes ahead or not, you will receive an email from the owner (Sam) the night before your ride to confirm the status and info about the ride and logistics. Rides that do not go ahead will be instantly refunded, or you can choose another date and the booking will be moved…whatever suits you best! The above is not totally inflexible and Sam will help, with pleasure, where ever possible.

The spectacular Narrow Neck trail follows a ridge-line deep into the valley, offering exhilarating scenic views across the
Megalong Valley in the world heritage listed Blue Mountains National Park. Setting out from Katoomba, a quick ride from town will take you off the tarmac and deep into the undulating trails of this unspoilt wilderness area. While there are a few short sharp hills that will test out your stamina, the phenomenal views are more than ample reward to keep you going. Plus as this ride is an ‘out and back’ route, the climbs you ride up on the way out transform into exhilarating descents on your return trip.
