A steeper, and longer descent off the summit than Wuffler. Well bermed corners so get off the brakes and let it hang out

Nothing to loose your nuts over. This short section is possibly more grade 4 than 5, downhill shortcut when riding Elastrator bottom to top, a quick wiggle through the matagouri and Corokia which is glorious when it's in flower. Think tight, flowy XC trail.

Rattle Ya Daggs is an access track, climbing from the Perenuka MTB Park entrance up to the start of the trails. Passing through a charming tunnel within a tree lane it has a couple of short sections of wide boardwalk, but as an exit track it's a little more fun as there is a good line of sight as you scoot down the treelane tunnel and enough roots to huck off to make it fun.

Just a cruisy track that is more often used as a climbing track back to the highpoint after riding Wuffler/Auger/Woolly Jumper and Elastrator. A gradual, steady climb track to get back to the fun trails.

Great little jump line thats rollable and therefore family friendly but you can also send it and get some air Starting form the top of Perenuka by the water tanks it descends over a huckable drop-off that has a rollable chicken line and continues down over one of the parks signiature features, the blue subie. This can be rolled over easily or can be hit with some speed and becomes a great little jump to build skills on. The track then descends via a couple of low-bermed switch-backs down to wuffler.
