Location & how to get there
The Shire of East Gippsland extends from the western watershed of the Mitchell and Thomson River catchments east and north to the New South Wales border.
Mt Taylor is home to the Mt Taylor Mountain Bike Park, just 15 minutes north of Bairnsdale, which is the main city of the region. Mt Taylor MTB Park has a downhill track, a flow trail, and two cross-country tracks. The main climb up Mt Taylor is popular for both bushwalkers and fitness riders as it climbs 300m elevation in 2.7km. At the base of the hill is the car parking area, known as ‘Boys Camp.’ There is a drop toilet and free camping, but no running water.
