This trail begins behind the start ramp of the ‘Dirt Jumps’. It is a great trail to warm up on or introduce new riders to the world of mountain biking. Â
The gradient of this trail is mainly flat so it is also suitable for all riders.Â
Riders will be challenged by roots, tree pinches, different types of corners (berms, flat & off camber), small log rolls, rollers and a few small bridge features. The trail concludes with a couple of rollers and a table top as you head back towards the Pemberton Pool and the ‘Dirt Jumps’ area.
Locals Tip: Riders looking to push their skills further can venture over to Tech Track for further technical challenges.
