Where to park

Trailhead

You'll find plenty of parking at the main trailhead at Hammon Park on Moore Street in Creswick. It's well appointed with BBQs, toilets, a bikewash station and pump and skills park for the kids.

Gravity trails

If you prefer to be closer to the gravity trails you have the option of parking on St Georges Lake Road but spaces are limited and surface uneven.

Shuttles

No formal commercial shuttles operate at Creswick MTB Park yet but there are some private operators.

You can self-shuttle the gravity trails by organising a pick-up at the gravity trails car park on St Georges Lake Rd and then driving up Water Street, which turn into a dirt road (Tourist Road). You can  drop riders at the top where you'll have ample space to turn.

4WDs will be able to take the shortcut from the gate straight to Tourist Road and cut out Water Street.
