Description
This is a smorgasbord of some favourite Arrowtown trails. A good chunk of it is on The WILD 50 mile course but also includes parts of the 20 mile and 100 mile courses too.
Most suitable for:
Intermediate level runners and above. A good level of fitness is required.
Peaks to be bagged:
Big Hill 1137m Navigation: Easy for the most part. One short section is untracked but should not present too many difficulties.
Trail Conditions
A mix of easy to moderate single track, 4WD/farm track and just enough technical terrain to add a touch of spice.
