om the southeastern end this track drops off Mt Vic Easy down through the trees into a little valley. Part way down, the track crosses a small (usually dry) creek via an artificial rock garden consisting mainly of broken chunks of concrete. A little further along there is a concrete step down (good fun) followed by a deeply rutted corner.
The track then climbs slightly, around a few hairpin bends and a neat keyhole corner, before rejoining Mt Vic Easy.
Along the way there are plenty of exposed tree roots and short, sharp slopes that look like they would be especially slippery when wet.

Access Info
Southwestern end is on Mt Vic Easy, less than 0.1km north of the clearing that contains the Mt Vic Skills Area. This intersection with Mt Vic Easy is marked by a pink inverted V painted on a small tree.
Northeastern end rejoins Mt Vic Easy just as the easy course enters the trees just above the badminton hall.
