Adamsfield (Morley) Track

If you're seeking a short but scenic 4WD experience in Tasmania's Southwest region, the Adamsfield (Morley) Track delivers an exciting riverside adventure in just under a kilometre. This medium-difficulty trail offers the perfect opportunity to test your vehicle's water-crossing capabilities without committing to a lengthy expedition—ideal for drivers looking to build confidence in off-road conditions.

You'll navigate gentle terrain as you make your way through native bushland toward the river crossings that define this track's character. The landscape here is quintessentially Tasmanian, with lush vegetation framing your approach to the water. The crossings themselves present the main challenge, requiring careful line selection and steady throttle control to safely ford the river. While the 4-minute average completion time suggests a quick run, don't rush—take time to assess water depth and flow conditions before committing to each crossing.

Before heading out, ensure your vehicle is in good mechanical condition and your tyres have adequate tread for wet conditions. Check recent rainfall reports, as water levels can rise quickly in this region. The flat grade makes this track accessible for drivers of varying experience levels, though water-fording experience is definitely an asset. With only two vehicles recorded on Newtracs, you'll likely enjoy plenty of solitude as you tackle this hidden gem near Southwest.
