Short and sharp, bit of technical, good way to avoid the road out towards 7 mile bay.
Some nice views of the lake.

Giving it 4 stars because its right out my back door and is part of a fantastic network of trails!

Short wee track that offers easy explorer points.

A good quick little hit out. Can get really muddy and slippery if there's been a bit of rain, and be aware that if you take a dog who loves mud, you'll have a dirty car by the time you leave! Nice to link on to Sunshine Bay Track if you want to create something longer.
