A gentle start, winding through the woods over a little bridge before dropping down through the gears to ride up past the cottages.  At the top, the timber road ends and you continue on a single track descent.  Care is needed at fox's den,a dark narrow section and at a tricky stream crossing at the bottom of a clearfell.  Here you go left 300m then right 300m on farm tracks.  Then, just before you link to the black trail cilmb, there is an escape single track back down to the cafe.
