Head South on Old Illawarra Road until the sports field disappears on your right - about 100m from there a firetrail heads off into the woods. This soon becomes single track and weaves along a cliff edge with views over Woronora River on your left. After about 1200m there's a gate with adjoining fence (if there ever was any) long gone. Head through there and after another 400m or so turn right and cross the road.

South of the road is easy, eh? One track, no getting lost - no such luck on the North. This is a maze of single track goodness and rough fire trails. Hopefully there will be more said about this soon, but in the mean time check the pictures and get out and enjoy! Smiling

Some good technical XC loops that follow along side of a creek.
XC loops range from 10ks to maybe 25ks

Also a few short free ride trails (but no shuttle access, so your pushing it back to the top)

Park oposite the nuclear reactor entrance on New Illawarra Rd,
The main trails start just down the gravel embankment on the western side of the road,

Watch out for dirtbikes, they wont give way...
