Check before you go
GreenPak has not confirmed this trail's current status with the responsible authority. Access can change with weather, wildlife and local restrictions, so ask locally before you set out.
The Capital Development Authority describes Trail 4 as the link between Trails 3 and 5. It is useful as a way of joining the two rather than as a route you would set out to walk on its own, and the authority publishes no timing or difficulty for it.
GreenPak difficulty
Not yet rated
No responsible authority publishes a difficulty for this trail, and GreenPak has not yet walked it. We would rather leave this blank than guess.
Links two other trails rather than standing on its own.
No elevation profile is shown because no surveyed elevation data has been published for this trail. When one is recorded it will appear here.
The line follows the route as it has been surveyed; the numbered points are the places worth knowing about along it. Every fact on this page is also written out — the map is never the only place a detail appears.

The Capital Development Authority publishes hiking guidance for the Margalla trails. The points below restate that guidance; anything specific to one trail is shown on that trail's own page.
Follow the marked route for the whole walk, and follow the signs, notices and directions posted along it.
Going with at least one other person is advised, and it matters most on the quieter trails where you may not pass anyone for a long stretch.
In hot weather the guidance is one litre for every hour you expect to be walking or climbing — carried with you, and drunk as you go.
Sturdy rubber-soled shoes or boots, a hat that will stay on, a long-sleeved shirt and sunscreen.
When it is very hot, walk only in the coolest part of the day.
The authority advises against climbing or attempting a strenuous walk if you have high or low blood pressure, a heart condition or a breathing condition, or if you are not reasonably fit.
If you become unwell or are injured, stay where you are and get word to someone who can arrange help rather than pressing on.
