The first legal freeride trail in Sydney Crackers is a Downhill track full of jumps, berms, drops and chutes, which winds its way down to the creek and finishes out at the weir. Lovingly crafted by locals many years ago, it recieved a huge upgrade by Dirt Art before being formally legalised in late 2019.

For first timers, make sure you walk or slowly ride the trail before sending jumps and drops, as conditions may vary. Do not ride in the wet, and make sure not to cut new trails in or damage the existing trail.

Access Info

Park in the upper Warrimoo Oval Carpark and duck straight into the bush.
