Description

The wettest and muddiest trail in Rangataua Forest. Best to ride West Track mid-summer, unless you're a mud fan. If you like to test your skills getting through bogs, this will be your heaven. This trail runs parallel to the Middle Track, stretching from the Rangataua Forest Rd down to Forestry Rd.
