Several short trails which link together through parts of Bardon/Ashgrove/The Gap.

There is a goat track just off the Barnett Rd trails (before you reach the dead-end of the track at private property) which connects to the Quarry Trail - You need to walk along a steep ridge to get to it - and this will connect you to the rest of the Mt Coot-tha trails.

Jacksonia Trail, Bellbird Trail, and Kokoda Trail Circuit
This walk is a great workout training. A lot of people along this track are training for possibly Kokoda and carry large packs. It is very steep, you some times see mountain bikers ride up and down.
