The climbing trail to access the Mt Narra network of decents. With premium views over the lake all the way up, you'll mistake it for a walk in the park - but it's no green trail; it rewards those who are switched on and ready.

There's a push track alternate half way up for those weak in legs and spirit, but the spirit of the Gorilla will reward you for your full-pull effort every time.

Access Info

        Vovos is a realatively simple track until the trail splits (Vovos goes left, Beem Me Up goes right). Beem Me Up is simple, and blue, no trouble there.

        After the fork in the trail though, Vovos gets real, it's a black climb for sure.

        I'm yet to clear it, you need the legs and the skills. I've got both, but not at the same time, and not by the end when the legs are gone, and the skills are wavering.

        If you're up for a challenging climb, this is one for the books, if you're looking for laps at Mt Narra, take the right at the fork and Beem it up.

        first section is very tame, after the trail splits off (vovós is the lower one) it easily becomes a black trail very technical assent that i’m yet to clean. i don’t often ride this second part but it’s still a fun and challenging ride.

        Felt like blue is an understatement for this one alot of it is pretty straightforward but some parts are technical.

        We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
