Description

Awesome singletrack through native beech forest. The trail is of similar difficulty to 491, but rides more like the tracks found on and around Mt Lowry. The top section is tight through young beech, with some off camber traverses infested with roots. After the first pinch climb, the trail speeds up and traverses around the spur, before dropping into a fast benched out section. The benching then gives way to an open spur filled with tall beech trees and plenty of loam.Plenty of optional harder lines, meaning this is a great trail to step up from the blue trails and 'Fade To Black', ready to ride the black trails from the Grade 5 Hub.
