Clover Knob
Clover Knob is an excellent one and a half to two and a half hour ride for all levels of rider.
It is a good introduction to single track. Drive out to Hope and take the first turn left after
the 100kmph sign on to Aniseed Valley Rd. Follow this road over the hill and keep going
to the Hackett picnic area which is at the end of the tar seal.

| From Hacket carpark bike back down the road a couple of K's and turn left on to Serpentine Rd. | Follow the main road up the valley. Don't turn up the hill but cross a ford and keep to the valley. | This is legal road even though there is a locked gate across it. |
 |  |  |
| The road is easy going through patches of native bush. | After the third ford you come to some old buildings and the road begins to climb. | There is the odd side road to the right. Always take the left fork |
 There are a couple of steeper pitches but all quite rideable. |  From the crest of the hill there is a cruisy downhill with a few ruts to watch before reaching the Hackett walking track. Turn right to go to Hackett Hut or left to the carpark. There is one steep switchback immediately after crossing an old slip which less experience riders may walk as there is quite a drop off into the river. |  |
 |  |  |
| A few minutes after the slip there is a short sharp dip in and out of a small creek that can be tricky. | There are a couple of creek crossings that beginners will probably walk. | But apart from that enjoy the gentle downhill cruise to the swing bridge. |
