What is the track condition like?
The overall terrain of the 2011 Trek the Trail is generally flat with one short rocky ascent in the first half. The trail is covered in loose gravel and is for the most part, wide enough to support a dual carriage way.

The following sections are unsuitable for persons who use wheelchairs or have mobility limitations:

• at 3.7km a short steep ascent/descent
• at 4.3km the ground slope is uneven

Do I need to book or pay to take part?
