Itinerary description
A nice ride. Starting at Epic Cycles throught The neighbourhood we arrive to the Mount Coot Tha Rd and the climb starts, at the surrounding the botanic gardens and the quarry. At the end of the climb we visit the summit restaurant It has a panoramic view of The city, nice food and fountains. Then the eucalyptus forest rooms all the place. The first path down is call Reservoir Trail, it's simple but with many slope and jumps. Now it's time to climb again, Kamala Trail a hard way up till Gold Mine Picnnic Area with fountain, tables and barbecue grill. After a good rest we go down, we start with Kokoda Trail until we shift to Whipbird Way a perfect single track with a wood bridge, high and low banking corners. At the end of Whipbird Way we joint Bandicoot Byway till Jacksonia Track heading to GAP CREEK RESERVE PICNIC AREA a nice green with fountains shadows and tables. At this ponit we climb Gap Creek Rd and then we turn right at Highwood Rd till Rocket Frog Trail an awesome single track like Whipbird Way and Bandicoot Byway but longer, it's fantastic. After it we ride Bellbird Trail, where birds sang up laud and Echidna Trail.
The way back wasn't a nice cycle way, only the last riverside cycle path.
