Visit safely • Plan ahead—let a responsible person know where you are going and when you expect to return. • Carry a mobile phone. • Carry a first-aid kit and know how to use it. • Stay on trails and obey all safety, warning and closure signs. • Watch out for other trail users, fallen trees and wildlife. • Do not walk or ride alone. • Wear adequate sun and insect protection and carry enough drinking water. • Do not enter the forest in strong wind conditions—blackbutt, flooded gum and other trees growing here are prone to dropping branches. Strong wind increases the risk of injury. Tewantin’s mountain bike trails are maintained by the Noosa Trailblazers Mountain Bike Club and Incorporated volunteers, in partnership with the Queensland Government. Ride responsibly • Always wear a helmet and appropriate safety gear. • Ride according to trail conditions. • Slow down and warn other trail users when approaching. • Keep trails in good condition by not riding during or immediately after wet weather. • Bike riders: avoid skidding and sliding around turns and downhill to prevent collisions and minimise trail damage. • Horse riders: rest horses for short periods only to minimise soil erosion and compaction. Do not allow horses to graze on park vegetation. Visit lightly • Stay on marked trails and management tracks to avoid damaging vegetation. • Minimise the spread of weeds—avoid walking and riding through patches of seeding weeds. • Take your rubbish with you when you leave. • Remember everything is protected.
