The Pool Shark is a cross between a nature trail and a pump track. It is a fun and 'twisty' trail built on dirt mounds leftover from historical soil dumping activities. The trail is set among thick Casuarina regrowth and offers various log features, sharp rises and descents, doubles and blind corners. The trail is downhill and is one way.

Traditionally Indigenous Territory
