Anaconda

Start: Near Breezes Col, Godley Head.

Finish: Te Onepoto/Taylors Mistake car park. 

Access: From Sumner, head up Evans Pass Road. At the saddle turn left onto Godley Head Road. Travel approximately 4km east along the road to cross a cattle grid at a DOC Reserve Sign.  Anaconda starts nearby on the left.  Alternatively, ride the Godley Head MTB track to Breezes Col-ride 400m up the sealed road to the start of the track.

Signage: At tracks start.  None at the end, but an obvious finish into Te Onepoto/Taylors Mistake car park.

Description: The track is fun and engaging and descends through a dry, open, rocky tussock grassland landscape.  It weaves back and forth and has plenty of twists and turns with fantastic views over the Te Onepoto/Taylors Mistake area.

The lower section is well-formed with smooth berms that let you corner at speed. Some sections twist and turn and require a decent amount of concentration. Look out for the 1 to 2 foot jumps off to the side of the track.

It ends near the Godley Head Walkway. Take the traversing track above the Godley Head walking track into the Te Onepoto/Taylors Mistake car park.
