Gap Creek Reserve — Attraction in Brisbane City

Parking is limited so good luck. Took my new mountain bike on the 'Easy' trail- Rocket Frog. To get to the Rocket Frog trail, you have to go via the Cockatoo trail or the path to the left of that is a steep climb one (accidentally took this one) and it will eventually link up with Rocket Frog. Def would not consider this 'easy'. Maybe to a experienced hard core mountain bikers standards but it was narrow, twisty and turn, lots of bumps and steep drops u could catch your pedal on and stack it if you are not careful/are inexperienced with 'proper' mountain biking. Just a heads up, this ain't some friendly fire trail, the tracks around here are the real deal. Take a photo of the map so you don't accidentally end up on some hectic intermediate or hard trail. The tracks are named after Aussie animals so sounds fine and dandy but they are scary. Survived the track by dismounting my bike over a few of the hairy bits. Overall still fun.

We walked quite a long way to find a trail closed with no option but to return to the car park. Although people were using it by going around the closure tape. There should be numbering on the trail signs to match the numbers on the park map. There isn't and the names don't seem to match the map. Some trails need warnings at the trail entry about how difficult they are. Because we were blocked from entering a trail we then went on a trail we hadn't expected to. It was challenging and when coupled with narrow sections, water crossings and mountain bikers, you have to wonder why they are open to...

The trail builders of this sanctioned trail network did an amazing job of building fun flow trails with very limited elevation. Laps are easy since climbing is not a horrible grunt. Big berms allow you to maximise your speed and small drops and table tops add to the enjoyment without being terrifying for newer riders since everything is rollable. The new pipeline trail is a little out of the way but totally worth the effort for seasoned riders. Fun flowy gap jumps, a cheeky drop that sneaks up on you even tho it is well marked, and a fun little wall ride. All trail heads are well marked and easy to read even for an old guy in the saddle. Hopefully they keep building on what they have. Water is available from fountains to refill bottles to...
