Logs
About a 4km ride from the bottom gate, but the hills are slight and the ride was very relaxing. Trig in great condition.
Rated: for Overall Experience
I visited Southend Trig last April and have wanted to get to this one for a while now.
Rated: for Overall Experience
Finally had enough time today to park and head out for the 9 km bikeride. A light undulating but very well maintained dirt road had me up and back within half an hour!

Found by Pi and some mates.
I've been past this TP before but that was a long time ago. So I was determined to make sure I grabbed this one today and there was an FTF to be had.
Parked in the Truck Rest Bay on Appin Rd (this is a better place to stop than at the 10B gate in my opinion) and headed off. We headed along 10B (on our mtbs) and rode as far as the TP before returning and continuing along our planned route out to Darkes Forest and back. Our ride came unstuck at the OHares Ck crossing on the 10C trail as the fire road is closed for maintenance and the water level was still very high. We were happy with how far we had gone and turned around for the return trip.
The TP is in very good condition and is located within a metre of the 10B trail. Only thing missing is the name plate.
Cheers,
Mike (GPS).
