This is a great hill training run through native bush following the course of the Taieri River from the river mouth to Henley. Some stunning scenery and great birdlife.
It's relatively sheltered from the bad weather so a nice trail run in Sou'westerles.

There's a creek about half way along (4km and 11km). I have drunk it without ill effects. The dog loves it. Try at your own risk.

Can be very muddy in parts but always passable. Sometimes some tree fall.

Surprises everywhere. Great track.

Completed this trail after big rains so had quite a bit of mud and some slippery bits. Nice hills to get the heart pumping.

Really nice bush track with a surprising amount of elevation. I ran it in reverse as easier to get to with a 4WD. Lots of flooding recently so the river was high and track quite muddy. But a very enjoyable morning run!
