An old (closed to vehicles) 4WD track runs from Alice Nash Memorial Heritage Lodge to the Table Flats roadend, dropping to Umutoi Creek, which it crosses on a high-arched footbridge. There is a 100m climb on each side of the creek, but the gradient is gentle on the roadbed and this is a trip for all abilities.
