Our story
At Elevate Trail Building, based in Queenstown, New Zealand, we specialize in designing and building trails of all types, from backcountry walking tracks to Grade 6 bike park jump trails. We provide trail construction, maintenance, and network design throughout New Zealand.
What sets us apart is our hands-on experience—we ride, hike, and live the trails we create. This passion ensures we deliver sustainable, well-integrated trails designed with flow, durability, and the user experience in mind.
With years of global experience in bike parks and trail networks, we understand what makes a successful trail system. From creating the master plan to implementing long-term maintenance strategies, we ensure every project is a success from start to finish.
Services
Consult
Our consulting services are all about making sure everyone is on the same page and heading in the right direction from the very beginning. We take the time to understand the unique needs of each project and work closely with communities and land managers to guide the process. It's not just about planning trails—it’s about creating sustainable, long-lasting solutions that reflect the land, the people who use it.
Create
When it’s time to pick up the tools, we bring deep experience, skill, and heart to every project. From simple walking tracks to world-class mountain bike trails—and everything in between—we approach each build with care, creativity, and a genuine passion for creating spaces people love to explore.
