Who in your group rides what
Whether everyone in your group gets a day at Mystic Bike Park - the grades on offer, the named zones, and how mixed abilities split up.
Green (Hero, Flatstrap) and blue flow (Tombstone, Flowmingo) through black and double-black technical/DH (Mystic DH, Old English).
Beginners: green/blue flow from lower drop zones (Hero, Flatstrap). Advanced: upper drop zones and black/double-black (Mystic DH, Old English). Descent-only riders buy a Gravity Pass (unlimited uplift shuttles); those without a pass can pedal-up climbing trails.
Multiple shuttle drop-off zones and graded trails suit mixed-ability groups and progression; close to Bright township.
The riding
