Moores Point Lane

If you're seeking an adrenaline-pumping challenge that will test your 4WD's capabilities and your driving skills, Moores Point Lane delivers in spades. This extreme trail near Palm Grove packs serious technical difficulty into a deceptively short 0.6 km stretch, featuring a brutal 30% grade that demands respect and precision. You'll experience raw, unforgiving terrain that separates experienced off-roaders from casual weekend warriors.

The steep ascent dominates this trail, requiring maximum traction, proper tire pressure, and expert vehicle control. You'll navigate loose surface conditions on a grade that leaves virtually no margin for error—one misjudgment could mean a rollover or becoming bogged down mid-climb. The landscape is rugged bushland typical of inland NSW, offering little visual distraction from the intense driving experience ahead. Completion typically takes around 6 minutes, though that timeline assumes flawless execution.

Before attempting Moores Point Lane, ensure your vehicle is in peak condition with quality all-terrain tires, upgraded suspension, and proven climbing ability. You should bring recovery equipment and ideally attempt this with experienced spotters on hand. Only four vehicles have successfully documented their run through Newtracs, underscoring how genuinely challenging this trail is. This isn't a scenic drive—it's a pure test of 4WD capability reserved for the most committed off-roaders willing to push their limits.
