Blue Loop

The Blue moderately graded route is 10.1km long. The Blue is built for novices and its aim is to inspire confidence. You leave the Lookout past the trig point on Gravel Hill. You then descend to a bermed, single-track section then through a pine forest and finish through Windsor Ride to New England Hill. Incorporates "Full Nine Yards", "Devils Highway" and "Stickler". Around The Stickler point, you have the choice of continuing the blue back or taking on the Red.

Red Loop

The Red graded loop is 13km long and connects sections such as Seagull, Tank Traps, Whole Nine Yards, Deerstalker and Labyrinth into a loop.
The route continues from the Blue as described above. You enter Tank Traps and then on to Crowthorne Reservoir. On to Satan's Grotto with its tight twisty single track and then crossing Devils Highway onto Seagull. Follows the forest road to Surrey Hill Reservoir down the "F1" descent into the forest then up the tough Boardwalk climb. Down to Deerstalker, through the Labyrinth out onto the forest ride. Some more Forest Road sections till you hit Cobblers before returning on the blue trail back.
For clarity, the Red starts at pretty much the midpoint of the Blue and returns at its end again along the Blue.
Along the red route you can diverge onto a neat jump line (splits into two options to step it up a gear). This line(s) can be sessioned over and over to improve those skills.

The Green graded Loop is for families and beginners and is 1.2km long. It has gentle dips and rises on a wide track.

There are a few short downhill runs dotted along the way off the red route at the mid way point.
In 2023 a new jump line called Bikini (carwash) line opened in this area. Well it's a completely revamped existing line but so beautifully re-imagined let's call it 'new'. You can get to it from top of what was red 20 and is now red 10 from when they changed the signage. It has a roll in, a 4 pack of jumps, a shark fin and a set of triplet jumps.
