Description
Starfish is a fun, narrow piece of classic Wellington singletrack.While Starfish isn't very steep, the trail builders have made the most of the terrain by including plenty of features including a rock roll, multiple drops, rollable jumps, a rock garden and a couple of alternative lines.It's definitely a step up in difficulty from grade 3 trails like Smokin and SWIGG. It's a bit steeper, narrower, rougher and generally more difficult.Originally built in 1998 with upgrades in 2000 and 2016. A major extension and realignment was hand built by volunteers in 2018/19 creating one long grade 4 trail from Snake Charmer down to the main entrance.
