  • Estimated Time - 40mins

  • Trail Type - Singletrack

This handcrafted advanced trail starts at the Waterfall Track car park. The sinewy single track climbs and winds its way up through established Spruce and Fir trees for a total of 22 switchbacks. If you clear the whole climb without stopping or dabbing then you can be pretty happy with both your skills and fitness. The effort of the uphill soon fades away as you start the iconic descent. This long rolling downhill incorporates fast railing sections with gravity fed compressions and pops, with tighter techy natural features. At the end of this trail you will understand why so many people session this trail over and over.

The trail is dual use walking and biking.
