Overgrown Bridleway

Highlight • Trail

This is a bad section to ride in in bad weather. Old bridleway that does not have a shown track. Riding through thick heater, water logged low points, wet going …

Rugged Rocky Path

Highlight • Climb

This section has rugged boulder rock all over, picking a ride line is not easy, the bike is rattling through this section. Thankfully I was going downhill, it would be difficult to pass through if riding the opposite direction

Cateran Hole Waymarker Stone

Highlight • Structure

Its quite small and may be missed on the track.

14.9 km

Cateran Hole Smugglers' Cave

Highlight • Historical Site

This cave is believed to be a smugglers cave. It is well hidden but a clear path leads you to it. Steps into it can be slippery when wet.

Gated Access with Puddles
