Rock & Roll MTB Tour Ticknock

The Rock and Roll Mountain Bike Tour at Ticknock National MTB Trail Centre is a private guided ride over technical rocky terrain, fast descents and challenging features, just outside Dublin. It’s designed for intermediate to advanced riders and pairs exciting trail sections with wide views over Dublin city, the bay and the surrounding mountains.

As with all Biking.ie tours, the ride starts with a welcome coffee while your guide gets to know you and your mountain bike experience. Your bike is sized and the suspension set up the way you like it. A full suspension bike is recommended for Ticknock’s rocky trails.

Over two hours, your qualified guide chooses the best trails for your ability and fills you in on the new trails being built. It suits experienced riders who want as much trail time as possible, and an e-bike upgrade lets you ride more of the Dublin Mountains.
