Ever wonder where trail fairies come from? There’s a good chance they’re spawned along Weaving Camels, a magical little MTB trail at Melrose, South Australia. With its lush green carpet, giant gums and babbling brook it’s straight out of a story book. The trail weaves its way through stands of River Red Gums (Camaldulensis) hence its name I guess!

Weaving Camels is a short loop that runs up and down both sides of Mount Creek. It’s a fun ride in itself and also links into Melrose’s southern and central mountain biking trails (e.g. Hidden Valley and Farmers Free Wheelin’) so it’s dead easy to include in a longer ride. Perfect stuff for adrenalin junkie hobbits of all ages! 🙂
