A wooden bridge crosses over a small creek in a dense forest, featuring tall trees and lush ferns. Sunlight filters through the trees, illuminating the path that leads deeper into the woodland. The scene conveys a peaceful and natural atmosphere. Old Man

    Cracking little course is 'Old Mans Valley'.
    Shame its as short as it is but still very worthy of a visit.

    Great trail with everything from greens to blacks. It features 2 great black trails, multiple light blue and dark blue flowing and technical trails alike, with more set to open. It also features a really nice set of dirt jumps ranging from easy to pretty big.
    The trails are often dusty, but most are hard pack clay and dirt. Bring plenty of water as there are no taps, save for ones at the local Westfield shopping centre.

    They are very dusty and goggles are recommended. It is a lot of fun and well maintained. I highly recommend this trail

    Lovely little trail, with a good mix of fast flowing track to some technical sections, good conditions for all riders.

    Fantastic beginnings of a trail network (early 2013). fast and flowing in sections and technical in others, a great mix. there is also a good mix of difficulty ranging from beginner to advanced, though at the moment there is mainly intermediate trails. can't wait to ride the whole network when its done.
