During the 1,300 foot descent there are many open areas to stop and enjoy the view. There are 4 different tracks downhill to select from depending on your ability, from novice to very advanced.
Experienced riders will complete the downhill in a little over an hour while novices can take most of a day enjoying the bush, picnic and swim on the way down or direct descent taking a little over 2 hours.
What Should I Take?
We will give you everything you need in terms of equipment for you to enjoy your ride including:
We also recommends you bring a few of the following things for your ride:
- Sunscreen, always wear plenty of protection
- Plenty of water for your trip, those warm summer days can have you dehydrated in no time, so you need lots of hydration, food, make sure you bring enough snacks so as to ensure you don't run out of energy half way through your ride, we recommend a One Square Meal bar at a minimum!
- Clothing, it always helps to be prepared, we are in the mountains and weather can change very quickly, so if it is looking ominous then take a jacket or something warm.
