Over recent years, significant initiatives have been delivered to ensure this vision is a reality including a whole of region approach to make Tropical North Queensland the premier mountain bike destination in Australia and an internationally renowned world class facility. Funding was secured to obtain feasibility and mapping reports to develop the Atherton Tablelands trail network.
