You'll discover an intriguing off-road route near Picola that offers a chance to explore lesser-known terrain in inland New South Wales. The Mc Donalds Track presents a relatively modest 3.4 km journey, making it an ideal option for those looking to scout new country or test their vehicle's capabilities on a shorter expedition without committing to a full day's adventure.
The track winds through rural NSW countryside with a gentle grade that won't demand extreme technical skill, though you should remain alert for the typical challenges of unsealed tracks—ruts, loose surfaces, and potential vegetation encroachment depending on recent maintenance. The experience is straightforward enough for relatively inexperienced off-roaders, yet it provides genuine exploration value for those building local knowledge of the region. You'll want to check current conditions before heading out, as unsealed tracks can change seasonally, and always carry basic recovery equipment and supplies.
While this trail remains unrated and unproven on Newtracs, it represents the kind of accessible backcountry exploration that makes off-roading rewarding. Whether you're a local seeking familiar routes or passing through the Picola district, this track offers a low-pressure opportunity to get off the bitumen and experience genuine 4WD driving.
