Pedal, Pump & Play on Local Tracks

Sunshine Coast Council

These purpose-built spaces offer a practical and fun way to build riding skills outdoors, supporting progression at every level with safe and accessible places to ride.

What is a pump track?

A pump track is a continuous loop made up of rollers and banked turns. Riders generate momentum by shifting their body weight through each rise and dip, rather than pedalling.

The design helps develop balance, coordination and control. BMX bikes, mountain bikes, scooters and skateboards can all use a pump track.

Forestwood Drive Park in Buderim and Sugar Bag Road in Caloundra each offer a slightly different riding experience while serving the same purpose; encouraging our community to get outside and be active and healthy.
