The body of a missing mountain biker has been located two days after he went missing in Kinglake National Park, north-east of Melbourne.

Montmorency man Paul Pagliaro, aged 47, was reported missing by his family after he failed to return from a five-hour ride on Saturday.

The body of the experienced cyclist was found by local police on a track in the national park just before 8am on Monday morning following a 20-person search.

Victoria Police Senior Sergeant Wayne Spence said Mr Pagliaro’s death did not appear to be trauma or accident related, and was most likely caused by health issues.
