Mountain Biking involves the risk of injury.

A long and varied loop ride in pine and eucalypt forest, with rolling tracks in old mine tailings along Morses Creek. There are fun-packed bermed decents in Bombsite and Tombstone and some steep drops and rises in Roger Packham Trail.

This Loop is marked by a purple coloured sign with the number five on it.

Nice loop for about an hours worth of riding. Not for beginners, there are a few little gully's and rooty downhills that may make life hard for a beginner.
