Terrey Hills Database Update

Hi everyone! Last week I enquired with NPWS if it was okay to ride a small trail that loops off/onto Perimeter. This trail is signposted with horses permitted on it. I have received the following response from the Rangers office. They confirm this track allows both horse riders and MTB riders. I have updated the Terrey Hills page http://nobmob.com/rides/terreyhills

I believe the track you are referring to is the Wilkins Loop North Track that is signposted with horses permitted on it. This track allows both horse riders and MTB riders.
However, the Wilkins Loop South Track does not permit horses or MTBs on it, as it passes through Duffys Forest EEC and is clearly signposted and fenced off.
MTB are permitted to use all the same trails as horse riders in the Duffys Forest Terry Hills part of KCNP & MTBs are also permitted to use the Cowan Track which horse are not permitted on.

Both MTBs & Horse are also not permitted on the Smiths Creek, Duffys Wharf / Slades & Bibbenluke Trails.
There are no “horse” only tracks in KCNP.

Cheers
