Signage: None at either end of the Summit Road where you access the ride, but the track is signposted at the start.
- Classed as a difficult ride, this track definitely lives up to its reputation with steep descents and incredibly rocky terrain.
- Make your way along a boulder strewn single track for approx 500m before launching into a steep descent which takes you into Bowenvale Valley.
- The gnarly 2-3 foot drops have easier routes, so don't be intimidated by this good piece of down hill action.
- Make sure you've got a good back tire or spare tubes as snake bites are common.
- A great track if you want to step up your down hilling skills away from the hustle and bustle of Victoria Park.
- The track passes through tussock land with great views into the Bowenvale Valley.
