The Watagans is the name given to the forested mountain range separating the Hunter River catchment and the Tuggerah Lakes system. The Watagans has a large number of recreation sites, with easy access from Sydney, the central coast, Newcastle and the Hunter Valley.

 

   

 

The area is popular with day-trippers, campers, mountain bike riders, four-wheel-drives, photographers and others who enjoy time in the great outdoors.

Trailworx

 

Playing in the Dirt has never been easier! Introducing Trailworx – The complete dirt bike hire and tour company. Trailworx is the latest concept in the complete dirtbike tour package.

 

   

 

Providing new bikes, riding gear and camping equipment, Trailworx offers a luxury experience without the luxury price tag. Based on the Central Coast of NSW, Trailworx operates year round.

All levels of riders are welcome with tour numbers deliberately kept low to ensure a fun time for all. Trailworx has chosen the user friendly 2007 DRZ 400s to make up its fleet. The DRZ has a proven reputation for reliability and all around performance. It’s the ideal choice.

You will be able to explore the Watagans if you hold a current motorcycle license or take to the tracks at Free Flight motocross and enduro complex if unlicensed. Customers can even bring friends with their own bikes to be part of the riding and camping experience.

 

   

 

Comfort is a priority at the Trailworx camp, large tarp awnings provide shelter from the elements and a place to relax with a hot meal. The campfire is the meeting point for recounting the days ride while hot showers and stretcher beds complete the experience.

No tour would be complete without backup and Trailworx utilises a 4WD vehicle as well as carrying GPS, emergency beacon, hand held radios and satellite phone. Every tour has a qualified first-aider to ensure the well-being of the riders.
