Messed Up is the northernmost ascent in the Arboretum network, serving as a key connector for riders entering from the Fitness Trail or the 1962 area.

This climb is the primary route for those finishing descents on Eucalyptus and surrounding lines who wish are ready to climb again.

The trail winds through some of the park’s denser timber stands, offering riders a close-up look at impressive varieties like Spotted Gum, Tallowwood, and Blackbutt.

With its steady, manageable gradient, it’s an efficient and scenic way to gain elevation for your next lap.
