School holidays outdoors in Sunnersta

Mountain bike camp for ages 9–12

Balance, braking, cornering and trail riding, developed step by step. Children need enough cycling confidence for the group. Check bike and helmet requirements and contact us if you are unsure whether the camp is suitable.

More confidence, skills and fun on the bike

MTB camp is for ages 9–12 wanting to improve and spend an active week together. We practise basics in a safe area, then apply them on Sunnersta's trails.

Skills that make trails more enjoyable

Basic position

Balance and control

We work on posture, vision and balance so the bike feels more stable in different situations.

Speed

Braking and cornering

Children practise speed control, braking and safe lines through turns and small obstacles.

Trails

Line choice and flow

Once basics are secure, we head onto trails, adapting difficulty and pace so everyone progresses together.

More than skills drills

The week also has games, team challenges and social time. If weather and programme allow, swimming, paddling or another outdoor activity offers variety.

01
