    Tips

    Mountain biking

    Well, it's definitely a ford. And yes, its slaty too. It makes for singular experience, though, especially if there's been a bit of rain!

    If that wasn't enough excitement, there's also an impressive waterfall downstream.

    This is a ford but you should be able to find a dry route.
