Bowden Spur (Shepherds Track)

Wurundjeri

Quick info:
In a Nutshell:
  • A single double-black rated DH run of around 2km and 200 m of descent
  • Has jumps, drops, berms, rock gardens, and some steep bits
  • Might be rated black if it was built today
  • Right next to forest track, so self shuttling is easy (or it’s a big pushy back up)
  • No facilities, so take what you need
