Brisbane City Council is growing your Brisbane lifestyle by working with the community to develop the Mt Coot-tha Reserve Mountain Bike Concept Plan.

Council has prepared a draft Mt Coot-tha Reserve Mountain Bike Concept Plan and is inviting feedback from the community. The draft concept plan is a high-level plan, and all proposed facilities are subject to detailed assessment, design and future budget for delivery.

The draft concept plan aims to balance between offering residents opportunities to enjoy Brisbane’s beautiful climate and outdoor areas while also protecting our natural environment for the future.

Delivering the Mt Coot-tha Reserve Mountain Bike Concept Plan is a key action of the Brisbane Off-Road Cycling Strategy, which is a city-wide strategy that guides long-term investment in off-road cycling facilities for children, adults and families within Council’s bushland reserves and parks.

When developing the Draft Mt Coot-tha Reserve Mountain Bike Concept Plan, Council considered a range of factors including track use and preferences, emerging trends and new technologies. The conservation of the natural environment and significant habitat was also a key consideration of the concept plan.

The draft concept plan aims to encourage people to get outdoors and have fun while getting fit and healthy by providing a well-planned, accessible network of safe, low-impact and sustainable facilities to meet the growing needs of the mountain bike community.
