46 km of signed XC trails are set to open on October 8 and 9 just outside of Yackandandah in NE Victoria. These tracks have been built by local riders in conjunction with DELWP and their management is overseen by a committee of local volunteers (Yack Tracks Inc). All built by hand, the tracks are almost all blue with a green beginner's loop for those starting out. These are located down the hill from Beechworth MTB Park and also within 30 minutes drive from Albury's Nail Can Hill and Wodonga's Hunchback Hill trails, head a little further afield and you can ride Mt Beauty and Bright tracks too. The tracks are signposted as four separate loops so it's just a matter of choosing your loop and following the coloured arrows on the signposts. On October 8 there'll be guided rides on the trails and on October 9 there's a 3 hour enduro event (Hard Yacka) as a fund-raiser for the local school. More information can be found at the Yack Tracks website.
