Super fun blue-graded mountain bike trail descent, the final descent back to the trail centre and cafe on the Melindwr Trail. Expect big views and skinny singletrack, with lots and lots of switchback berms.

If you really love it, simply head back up the forest road to have another go!

Fast and flowing running almost along side the red trail back to the lake. Great to add on to the end as its a short climb back to the top for it.
