The summit of Mt Little Joe isn’t just for advanced riders. Roll onto Fools Gold and enjoy a flowing descent into the Mt Little Joe East junction, where you can choose your own adventure on green, blue, or black trails into Warburton.
Even though this trail is rated green, don’t underestimate it – the speed can build quickly, so remember the name and take a moment to settle down and stay in control. Smooth turns and a playful gradient make it fun for all skill levels, but it rewards riders who keep their focus.

Be aware that whilst "green", this is a proper mountain bike trail and not a "beginner" trail. It is very safe, is a great flow trail for those not up to an intermediate level but possibly a challenge for new riders.
