This is one of the first sections of trail to be constructed and contains many challenging rock gardens, fast corners, fun jumps and one Black Diamond log ride shortly before you descend to the Camel Farm. Depending on where you have started this can be the start of your ride (from the Black Stump) or the finish (parked at the Camel Farm). Some begineer riders might find the rocks a bit too lumpy for which the green run "The Camel Train" offers a quicker mellower route to the same point.
