Wash Out Trail

You'll find the Wash Out Trail offers a quick and accessible introduction to off-road driving near Upper Corindi, making it perfect for beginners or those looking to warm up their vehicle before tackling more challenging terrain. This short 0.5 km route showcases the raw, weathered landscape characteristic of the region, where water erosion has carved distinctive channels through the earth—a natural reminder of the area's dynamic geology. The gentle, flat gradient means you can focus entirely on vehicle handling and line selection without worrying about steep climbs or descents.

The driving experience is straightforward but rewarding, taking just two minutes to complete as you navigate the washboard surface and minor undulations. The lack of any significant steep sections makes this an ideal choice for newer 4WD drivers or those with less capable vehicles. You should expect dry conditions most of the year, though the trail's name hints at seasonal water flow considerations during heavy rainfall—be mindful of ground conditions after wet weather. With eight vehicles already having successfully completed this route, you can be confident in its accessibility, and using the Newtracs app will ensure you stay on track while exploring this corner of New South Wales.
