Short bit of fast, non-technical singletrack, starting at the gate on the tarmac path and rejoining the tarmac further down the hill. Be careful as the gorse gets really thick and tall from mid-June onwards. There may be more options along this trail but the gorse was too thick for me to explore further. This trail doesn't seem to be used much, but is much more fun that heading down the the tarmac path to the golf course.

Access Info

Turn right at the gate on the main tarmac path.

Disclaimer

There's a lot of gorse, you may have to turn back depending on the time of year.
