Highlights
Our private Park is unique to New Zealand. Thundercross is a one-stop-shop for dirt biking, where you can hire bikes, have tuition from accredited coaches and ride a variety of trails! We offer everything you need to get amongst it and ride safely. Set in 750 acres of stunning Waikato countryside.
If you can ride a two-wheel pedal bike confidently; stopping/starting/steering and braking, you can ride a dirt bike. From approximately 5 years upwards; our most senior hirer is 80 years old!
No motorcycle licence or experience necessary. We carry the Adventure Mark safety accreditation and James is one of NZ's most experienced dirt bike coaches, so you will be in good hands. Our experienced Thundercross team will look after you.
Thundercross Valley Dirt Bike Park boasts a range of different tracks to cater all skill levels and riding abilities.
We hope to see you soon!
