Trail one of the Hobbs Road / Lerderderg State Park MTB Trails. ( Also known as the Pyrete Range )
Don't know what the locals actually call these trails, although Flow did a summary and the trails were known as Yellow Dot, because of the Yellow Spray paint dot on trees along the trail.
Trail is a mix of tight and twisty small scattered pyrete rock, and sandy base, through bushland, with some areas of flow

This trail is unsanctioned.
