Description
Bike only, down direction only towards Tauroa Road carpark. Can be slippery and narrow in the trees with some alternate advanced lines, including an optional step up where the A line crosses over the B line. Once you exit the trees there is an easy (left) and a hard (right) line. The hard line has some drops and rollable doubles and an optional skinny that finishes with a significant drop. The easy line is more of a pump track where the rollers can be doubled, and an optional rock feature wallride of sorts. A nice transfer from right line to left line is available for the eagle-eyed. Both lines cross the Kowhai Climb so keep an eye out for uphill riders approx 200m after exiting the trees.
