Re:
ZZ, it's been sneakily raining during the night then sunny during the day here for the last few days.
clubby, the DH on Benarty branches off the track from trig point on summit of Benarty once you cross the wall from hillside into the woods. You turn right after wall following existing footpath/MTB trail, then around 100 meters later the footpath turns round to left but the new DH trail cuts off to right with a built jump shortly after. It continues steeply down through woods to road. There's lots of new stuff been built recently, a lot of hard work has gone in to it with bermed corners and jumps. It then finishes right at the wee lay-by on back road tae Blingri, where the footpath with steps starts for walk up to Benarty. If you came up the climb through Harran Hill Woods from The Meedies but instead of going back down just continue out to Blingri road you'd end up at the wee lay-by.
If you wanted to do it without going all the way to top of Benarty you could just push/ride up the steps then through woods to just before the path turns up to the right to then cross the wall onto hillside.
Edit, because I replied to Keith when it was clubby that asked the question. :facepalm:
