Primarily a walking track following an old paper road that links Blacks Rd with Opoho Creek and the Big Easy. Easiest to join on to it from the start of the last bridge going up the Big Easy. It's a hike-a-bike track up and a challenging descent. Horrendous to walk or ride (either direction) when wet.
Access Info
Can be accessed from the end of Blacks Road in Opoho (in the bushes at the end of the street), or after crossing over Opoho Creek, at the last bridge going up the Big Easy.
