It's a real mixed bag of a track coming off Kendo Cut. Starts with a tricky traversing downhill section with two drops and some off-camber. It then meanders through natives on the river flats with a waterfall being a highlight, before a short loose punchy climb return the track back to your starting point. Not recommended in wet weather and can take a while to dry out.
