Description

Not for the faint hearted Borderline is steep, technical and challenging. For those that like a good adventure then prepare yourself for a exhilarating trip down through the natives and as far off the beaten track as Dirt Farm allows. Be warned though this trail requires you to earn your turns with an uphill push out of the beautiful gully it ends in.
