Llwybr Glengarw (Blue)

The Glengarw Trail is a 3km Blue graded trail with sweet singletrack, 100 metres of climbing, great berms, and a fun descent. It is aimed at novices and intermediate riders.
The Glengarw Trail is named after the Glengarw Colliery, also known as the Ballarat.

Llwybr Gellideg (Black)

The Gellideg Trail is a 3.2km Black graded trail with approx 200 metres of climbing. It starts off on the first section of the Glengarw 'Blue' trail to join onto the black. It consists of a tough climb followed by a technical descent with berms, steep bomb holes, technical rock features, and has a section running through a natural quarry. The black is aimed at experienced and skilled riders.
The Langline as it is known is a short trail with steep chutes, technical corners, jumps at the bottom with a little sender to get you started for the 2 decent size tables. It is a separate trail that leads off the Gellideg.
The Gellideg Trail is named after the largest coal seam in the Ocean Colliery.

There is alot of off piste riding but you would ideally need somebody to take you with some knowledge as they are steep and some have some decent size jumps and gaps.
