Park at the Monument on Monument Hill.

From the Monument we head north along Roper Track to Pemberton St. Look for a safe place to cross the road to the Nail Can Hill Ridge Trail and after a short distance take the Farrer Trail, then the Tree Frog Trail in search of the Unemployment Track. We head up this track and rejoin the Ridge Trail turning right. We then take some bike trails off to the left such as Terminated and Final Terms. Then we take the Spider Orchid Trail and Spring Trail heading back to the Ridge Trail.

After rejoining the Ridge Trail we head south back to Pemberton Street where we cross it taking the Roper track back to the Monument and the cars. 

Dogs OK. Toilets available at the Monument.

Bring a morning tea snack. Coffee and cake afterwards.

Any late cancellations please call me on 0456 100 183.
