Years in the making, this epic project has teamed up Council, contractors, land managers and the local crew to build a world-class trail network that’s set to draw riders and boost the region all year round.
Some loops that are set to get the adventure loop junkie excited – Blue Roo and Boulder Dash (XC8) and Offgrid (XC9) – offer narrow Blue and Blue/Black trails that take riders through areas of historical significance – and we’re looking at installing signage for riders who want to know more.
Across the park, Pendulum (GR5), Boundary Rider (XC14) and Crank Dog/Miss Adventure (XC15) are coming alive. GR5 is a rare Black Diamond freeride trail – 3.5 km of wide trail and huge jumps leaving riders thinking they have flown over to Whistler! At the end of Pendulum, riders get the opportunity to step it up a notch on Bangarang, a Double Black freeride trail, culminating in an 11m road gap or have a fun berm flow finish on the lower section of Flomeo.
Boundary Rider (XC14) and Crank Dog (XC15) carve through Sam Hill, with Crank Dog dropping into Miss Adventure, a Blue flow trail for the downhill fans. Riders of Crank Dog will be rewarded with beautiful views of Benambra and Lake Omeo.
Don’t be fooled into taking your DH bike out on Miss Adventure though as you’ll need to tackle Crank Dog, a 10km climb, back up to the Sam Hill summit.
