A fairly dull fire-trail. Would only consider if you are passing through and want to stretch your legs. The Waratah track to the south is better if you want to sample Ku-Ring-Gai wilderness.

PS. In case you're wondering about the adjoining Wallaroo and Yeomans tracks - don't bother.
They are overgrown with vegetation, and difficult to ride. Both tracks are lined with and covered with bushes (some spikey). Wallaroo does go out to a half-decent lookout. I suggest long-sleeve jersey and gloves for protection if you are keen on either of these.

      PS - Wallaroo is fine to ride. It's a fire trail that's quite rocky but easily negotiated. Yeomans looked overgrown at the junction so we didn't bother.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
