Starts gently sweeping back and forth across a gully. As it descends the gully the crossings get steeper, so keep your speed up to roll up the other side.

Finishes with a steady climb up 4 switchbacks to finish on the Reservoir Track close to the start.
Regraded 2026 at the request of CODC to comply with NZMTB Trail Guidelines.
