Holley Road

Holley Road offers 4WD enthusiasts an accessible introduction to off-road driving in Tasmania's rugged Southwest region. You'll navigate a well-maintained 12.1 km route that showcases the area's natural character without demanding advanced technical skills, making it ideal for those building confidence behind the wheel on unsealed roads.

The terrain rolls gently through native forest and open bushland, with occasional water crossings that add mild interest to an otherwise straightforward driving experience. You'll encounter a mix of hardpack and gravel surfaces in good condition, allowing you to focus on enjoying the Tasmanian landscape rather than wrestling with your vehicle. The complete absence of steep grades means you can maintain steady progress and take time to appreciate the surrounding scenery—dense vegetation, native wildlife, and the peaceful isolation that defines this corner of Southwest Tasmania.

While the trail presents minimal technical challenges, you should still come prepared. Ensure your 4WD is in good mechanical condition and carry essential supplies including water, a first aid kit, and communication devices, as this region remains remote. Check weather conditions before departing, as Tasmanian conditions can change rapidly. The Newtracs app will help you track your position and completion time throughout your drive.
