Location: Wrights Hill, Wellington, New Zealand
Overview:
Foot-only track from Paparata Street to Burrows Ave.
Grade: Intermediate
Access: Foot
Description:
This is a short and fairly steep track connecting Paparata Street with Burrows Ave. It isn't suitable for bikes due to some steps 50m from the Paparata Street end and a tight and very steep set of zig-zag switchbacks in the middle.
About 50m from the intersection with Burrows Ave, there is a track marked with a "Dead end" sign. In fact it isn't a dead end, but rather it is a short track that goes up to Mewburn Rise.
At the Burrows Ave intersection, the natural flow when descending Burrows Ave is to continue along Paparata. A hard left turn is required to continue down Burrows Ave instead.
Getting there:
Start from the end of Paparata Street, where it meets Caughley Grove and Mewburn Rise.
The track ends at an intersection with Burrows Ave.
Length: 0.37km
Conditions: Single track
