Details
During the winter season, this is a downhill ski run. During the rest of the year, it is frequented by hikers and runners. It is short but quite steep to Mount Strachan and the route itself is not well marked throughout. The excellent views at the top are well worth the climb. This is a great option for a quick getaway from the city.
