There's a technical descent that has a metal pipe sticking out of the ground near the bottom, hence the name "Pipehill". Nice singletrack climb leading up, which also connects to nearby neighbourhood entrance to Erindale Park. Unfortunately erosion and fallen trees can make parts of this trail unridable, so tread carefully.

        Last 1/3 of the trail has private property sign.

        Yes indeed this is a very black trail bordering on double black. the end is gnarly, especially on a hardtail. Could use some 'light maintenance to improve flow and exits.

        The trail starts off with a steep climb full of fun challenging rooted sections, once the climb is finished it levels off with a flat path. After the trail gets very very steep, about a fort-five degree angle. The downhill is covered in roots and makes you gulp, The trail ends off with another steep down hill and leads to the green trail, The black rating doesn’t lie.

        We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
