THE TRAILS:
FOLLOW THE DOG (10.8KM, RED)
Follow the Dog was the Midlands’ first dedicated MTB trail. It’s 75 percent singletrack and aimed at beginner to intermediate riders. The trail is a mixed affair – fast and flowing, with some tight and technical sections. You should be able to ride the whole thing in less than an hour but it’s entertaining enough to make a second lap worthwhile.
THE MONKEY TRAIL (22.8KM INC. FOLLOW THE DOG, RED)
The start of The Monkey Trail is a accessed via Follow the Dog. It’s more physically and technically demanding, with some trickier trail features and several black options. The trail is 80 per cent singletrack and finishes with the awesome Lower Cliff decent.
DOWNHILL AREA (ORANGE)
Known as Stile Cop, this area boasts several downhill runs. The tracks are only around a minute long, but they’re packed with jumps, drops, and other technical features that require commitment, so aren’t suitable for inexperienced riders.
