Great area of single trail in the centre of Newcastle. A once illegal area that in late 2009 has been audited and updated by trail building professionals with mountain biking and associated trails included in the Plan of Management for the reserve. Trail upgrades and maintenace are coordinated thru the Glenrock Trail Alliance in collaboration with NSW NPWS. An example of how things should be done.
