Clarence MTB Park and the Meehan Range is 8 km from the Hobart CBD, on the way to Hobart Airport. It's about a 10 minute drive from the CBD, on a bad day!

The park includes dirt jumps, mountain cross, dual slalom, downhill and leg burner cross country trails. PDF of trail information and maps at the link Address - 2 entry points
