This is where the Unicon XV Muni was held.

Lots of different routes here amongst the crazy network of paths. Lots of uphill, downhill, steep / rooty / muddy / rocky tracks - whatever you want really! Most of it is in sheltered woodland, but it can be windy at the summit and along Alexandra Road. In return you get great views of the city and harbour.

It's well signposted with numerous map boards. Good places to start:

Bottom of the hill: the top of Majoribanks St / Pirie St in Mount Victoria; or Constable St in Newtown.

Top of the hill: summit carpark, or the saddle point on Alexandra Road.
