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.
