Location: Makara Peak, Wellington, New Zealand
Overview:
4wd road providing access to electricity transmission pylon 19, which is in the Skills Area.
Grade: Easy
Access: Bike and Foot
Description:
This is a 4wd access road for pylon 19, though more importantly (from the perspective of the Makara Peak mountain bike park) it provides access to the Skills Area.
Much of this road runs parallel to Koru and Magic Carpet. Towards the northern end, about 0.12km from Snake Charmer, is a major intersection of the park's lower tracks. That is: on the western side you'll find the top of Koru and the start of Sally Alley, while on the eastern side is the nexus of Big Tom's Wheelie, Swigg, and Lazy Fern.
Getting there:
Northern end meets Snake Charmer just above the intersection with Ridgeline Extension and Big Tom's Wheelie.
Southern end is in the Skills Area.
Length: 0.72km
Conditions: 4wd
