One of the more interesting segments of the main Stromlo climb, there are numerous "choose your adventure" splits in the trail. The main one is a rock face very near the end which experienced riders cruise up and beginners don't even notice as an option.
Ends at the observatory where you can turn left to fill up on fresh water or continue straight ahead to the summit.
