Firetrail
Hanging Rock
An easy fire trail ride with lots of big water bars for fun. The trail ends a Baltzer Lookout with views across the Grose valley towards Pierces pass and Mt Banks.
A steep walking trail heads down to the left to access the spectacular "Hanging rock" (known to BASE jumpers as "the Finger") best to leave the bikes at the top.
The Old Coach rd
A great run down into the Wolgan Valley from up on the Newnes Plateau.
Approx 30km for either Lithgow or Clarence turn off the Glow Worm tunnel rd to the right on to the Old Coach road.
5km of gentle descent will to the locked gate. Over this and on the road becomes steeper and rougher. Big water bars and spectacular views.
Just watch out for the second gate. you cross a flat section with views over pagodas to the left. the road drops down again around a left and then back to the right in between two pagodas... this is where the gate is.
Enduro Loop (Rail easement)
This one follows a section of the old Newnes railway before hooking up with old forestry roads leading back to the Black Fellows Hand rd.
This is an easy way back to the picnic area from the end of the Whoops track but also gives access to as couple of other Single trail loops
The Whoops
A great run down a long steady fire trail with lots of little waterbars. Some sandy patches to keep you on your toes. Short but steep climb up to Waratah ridge rd to finish it
