By signing up or attending, you agree to our Event Participation Terms.
What three years built
NAMBA opened Twin Peaks Bike Park in Niseko on 16 September 2023 with 10.4km of trail. It’s now Japan’s largest free-to-ride mountain bike park, almost 18km of it, built and looked after by this community.
That’s worth a party. Dig with us in the morning, eat with us at lunch, then stay for an afternoon of bike games and a raffle.
- 3 years old
- 17.8km of trail, from nothing
- 20 trails, green to double black
- 19,000+ rider visits since 2024
What’s included
- A limited edition t-shirt, made for this event and not sold afterwards.
- NAMBA and Twin Peaks stickers.
- Hands-on trail building with the NAMBA crew.
- Five raffle tickets, plus more to earn through the afternoon games.
- BBQ lunch, a Pow Bar, soft drinks and a Twin Peaks Bike Park Pale Ale from Yotei Brewing for the adults.
Out come the shovels
The morning is your chance to see what actually goes into a trail. The NAMBA crew will show you how we build and maintain them, and you’ll put real work into the ground while you learn.
We split into groups and take on different jobs across the park. Bring gloves, and wear something you don’t mind getting dirty.
Let the games begin
The afternoon is bike challenges and mini games, spread out across the park. Each one you finish earns extra raffle tickets, so the more you take on, the better your odds at 4:00pm.
We’ll announce what the challenges are closer to the day.
The raffle
Draw is at 4:00pm at the base of the park. Grab a drink, cross your fingers, and see what you go home with.
Prizes are still landing from some big names, and we’ll list them here as they’re confirmed. Only participants go in the draw and we don’t sell tickets separately, so get your ticket early. Announcements go out here and on Instagram.
Weather
We always hope for the best, but if Saturday isn’t playing ball we’ll move the whole day to Sunday 20 September. Monday the 21st is a public holiday, so there’s room in the weekend.
