Riding in Dural

StevieG's picture

By StevieG - Posted on 04 October 2013

I'm heading to Dural during the long weekend and it's not somewhere I've explored much. Does anyone know of any trails around that area that would warrant throwing the bike onto the rack before I go?

Cheers!

Quarry Road Track

Starts at the end of Quarry Road Dural and gives some good views, downhills and serious uphill training. It's a 6km ride to Hornsby (but feels longer) with several side options. You can attach this to Old Man's Valley in Hornsby for several laps of the track before heading back.

Marra Marra National Park has some short easy trails and some rocky stuff up Coba Ridge.

Definitely do not do the north leg (Smugglers Ridge) - It is unrideable and the hill back up is a doozy. Coba Ridge track is good, but is overgrown at present, so be prepared for branches in your face in parts. Very very sandy in other places...
