Great track to do on the way back from the southern tracks. Track starts near the bottom bridge opposite the end of the PD Track. It climbs gently through young redwoods/ scrub until near the shipping container where it changes to pine forest. Here you can exit the track to do the PD track again. If you continue on the track you will soon come across a ‘Hard’ / ‘Easy’ split in the track. The ‘Hard’ option descends down to the reservoir edge and you will be challenged by large pine roots and tight turns as you stay near the reservoir edge. Eventually you merge with the ‘Easy’ track to cross the exit bridge to the grass reserve. The ‘Easy’ option turns right after the split at the top and heads towards a small creek which you follow until coming to the same exit bridge as the ‘Hard’ option.
