If you're seeking a compact yet technically engaging 4WD challenge near Upper Natone, Log Track delivers an intimate off-road experience where water crossings test your vehicle handling skills in a short, concentrated burst. This brief 0.2 km route punches above its weight, offering river crossing opportunities that demand careful line selection and respect for water conditions—ideal for drivers wanting to practice water fording techniques without committing to a lengthy expedition.
