Sections of old timber roads (scouted in 2021) combined with some sections of path and some new sections made through the very nice rocky and steep terrain, it ended up in a rideable singletrail, still work in progress.
The trail is unsanctioned, not very maintained at the moment and you are riding it at your own risk.

Access Info

Tricky, still work in progress.

This trail is unsanctioned.
