Cycling in West Coast NP


Sbloomer

Recommended Posts

Has anyone ridden into, or through the West Coast NP?

 

We've had issues going into Cape Point NR, where the people at the gate did not seem to understand what we needed to pay, and whether a wild card was relevant, or whether there was a day/weekend permit and, and and...

 

Google seems to suggest only normal park entry fees or wildcard is required.

 

I'd like to do some cycling / bird watching around the lagoon, but I don't want my arm broken by some pesky game ranger.

Normal SANParks rules apply.Not that TMNP nonsense.

Go here and all will be revealed.I stay and ride in most of the parks except where forbidden for good reason.http://www.sanparks.org/parks/west_coast/tourism/activities.php

The West Coast National Park is definitely open to cyclists. Same rate applies to cyclists as does to motorists/hikers: a per person day fee or Wild Card (assuming your Wild Card gives you coverage for this park; i.e. National). 

 

Lovely quiet roads, or a few dirt trails if you bring a mountain bike. Feel free to message if you need more info about the trails/routes.
