“Chimney Sweep provides great views across the harbour, situated on an open top of the hill it is rocky and usually dry. ”

Description

Chimney Sweep has just had some work done, this includes a couple new features and controlling some of the erosion that happens in such an exposed area. Just as the name suggests, the trail features a chimney jump and enough sweeping corners to wear your elbows out.

Chimney Sweep is found by climbing up the main 4X4 (Farm Road) to the first tower on the hill.
