Blue Derby Mountain Bike Trails

Reviewed By drwwolf - Cooroy, Australia

The Blue Derby network of mountain bike trails is one of the absolute best I have ever come across, it’s something for everybody, including beginners and intermediate and advanced. Plan ahead, book your higher bicycle, and book your shuttles in advance as they can fill up in the busy season. You can ride to the top, or shuttles are generally $10 per ride, or $55 for a full day of unlimited shuttles. Long rides like the classic Blue Tier ride (42km) are amazing but may be closed after wet weather. Absolutely world-class trails, there’s a reason the Enduro World Champs are held here!

Reviewed By MissBehavingCrew - Noosa, Australia

Tim and Helen helped with planning our activities, finding us accom, airport transfer as well as buggy shuttles. Super generous with their time. I couldn’t recommend them more highly! This was my second visit to Derby and we found these guys on our last trip, they were gold and us such were our local helpers for just about everything on our second trip.

The Tin Dragon Interpretation Centre and Cafe

Derby is the small town with a big story. For a time it was the richest tin mine in the world. Water was the energy source, and to keep it coming, the company built water races and then a dam above the town. The inspectors said the dam would never fail. But in April 1929 it rained for five days straight, culminating in a final downpour of 5 inches in just two hours. Tin Dragon Cafe and Interpretation Centre will be closed on Wednesdays and Fridays in May and June 2014. In May the Centre will open between 10am and 4pm, and in June the Centre will open between 10am and 3pm. All bookings and enquiries can be made directly to the Tin Dragon Cafe and Interpretation Centre or to Dorset Council.
