This trail is an old walkers track that's now popular with mountain bikers. It starts off fairly steep and rocky, crossing the forest road several times before joining a short grassy double track. There is a final left hand fork onto singletrack which weaves through a broadleaf wood before finishing at an access road.

This trail drains well and is rideable in all conditions.

This trail is unsanctioned.
