Sally Alley partially closed due to slip

Due to a large slip during a storm during the COVID-19 lock down, the end section of Sally Alley is now closed to everyone. The slip is still moving, so it’s not a safe area, so please stay out. We’re working with WCC, but it looks like it could take 6 months to fix it.

Sally Alley is open as far as the drop in from Snake Charmer 4WD where you’ll come across a substantial orange fence. Turn right up the drop in and continue on your way.

Sally Alley is closed from the Snake Charmer connector onwards due to a massive slip.

To make it easier to get to Upswing and the Summit we’ve temporarily reversed Three Brothers Part 1. It’s now a downhill track, just not designed as one so watch out on the corners.

How to get to the summit:

After you exit Sally Alley and trundle up Snake Charmer, keep going up past Tower 18 Connector. Where Three Brothers crosses Snake Charmer you can now head left and down to Upswing.

Once Transpower have finished painting the powerlines you’ll be able to continue down to Missing Link.

If you’re one of the few brave people who ride up Missing Link (yes it’s two way people!) then you’ll have to ride up Tower 18 Connector, hook left onto Snake Charmer and then down to Upswing.
