Border Track

You'll discover why the Border Track is a perfect introduction to off-road driving in remote South Australia. This easy 6.7 km route near Murray-Sunset offers an accessible adventure through scenic semi-arid landscape, making it ideal for drivers looking to build confidence without tackling technical terrain. The track's gentle grades mean you can focus on enjoying the expansive views and unique outback environment rather than wrestling with steep descents or challenging obstacles.

The driving experience is refreshingly straightforward—you'll navigate well-defined tracks across relatively flat country with minimal elevation changes. The landscape unfolds gradually as you progress, revealing the distinctive character of the Murray-Sunset region's sparse vegetation and red earth. While the route itself presents no significant hazards, you should still carry water and ensure your vehicle is in good working order before heading out, as you'll be traveling through remote country where help isn't immediately nearby.

With an average completion time of just 11 minutes of actual driving, this trail is perfect for combining with other nearby routes or spending extra time enjoying the solitude of the outback.
