MTB Track that follows down beside the Conical Hill Road from the top down to the first corner. Great to do this and then follow on into C Line.
This trail has been logged and is now a rough route rather than a technical trail. Still rideable down to C Line.

Trails are mostly hand built by the Hanmer MTB Club. With limited sources of income we would appreciate your donation or become a member https://www.hanmermtb.nz
