Land OwnerDepartment of Conservation
A DH track which starts well above treeline just beyond the locked gate on Cheeseman Rd. Check out the views before traversing through tussock lands, then things get a bit steeper once you enter the forest. Please be aware that the trail surface above treeline is fragile when wet or frosted and you should consider riding something less prone to damage.
Please note: DOC have stated no more tracks are to be developed below the Cheeseman Skifield Road.
Access Info
Ride up Cheeseman Rd. You can exit on to the road from a couple of different spots near the bottom or link in to Drac Flat Trail and pop out at Texas Flat parking area.
