The idea i had for this route was to go up and down every side of Castle hill covering all major trails in a counterclockwise direction and 5 ascents of the mountain.
The route starts at the base sign of the "West Ridge Track"
- you follow that track to the road and take the road up to the top carpark go around the carpark and back down the same route to the base
- from the bottom of west ridge track you head along the base of the mountain to link up to "ironbark track"
- take ironbark to the road and the road to the parking lot and back down ironbark.
- turn off on triandra track and follow till you link up with "Daniella Track"
- take "daniella track" to the road follow road to parking lot around and back down same route
- when returning down daniella track take and early left onto "blue spot track" till you reach "maidenhair track"
- follow "maidenhair track" till you reach "goat track"
- take "goat track" up to parking lot and back down same route.
- when descending goat track take a left at "cudtheringa track" and follow till you hit the road.
- when arriving at the road youll have to follow the road up about 200m till you find a small more hidden trail on your left called "Westies track"
- take westies track all the way up to "scramble track" which goes to the tower at the top
- once you reach the car park that is your 5th and final ascent. Its time to descend from the parking lot
- you descend down the road all the way till you get back to the west side of castle hill and you jump on the "Erythrina track"
- Take the erythrina track all the way down to the watertower (dont get lost here like me)
- from the water tower you will link to the left around the tower onto to the "Belgian gardens link track" making sure to stay left along the mountain to link back up to the start of the West ridge track
- this marks the finish of the run Have fun and I can't wait to see some unreal times get dropped here.

**Best way to approach this is just through the gpx file in your watch and follow it up and down the mountain
