Brinkley Road

Brinkley Road offers 4WD drivers an opportunity to explore the quieter back routes of South Australia's Mid Murray region near Younghusband. This short 1.5 km trail takes you through rural landscape that rewards curious explorers willing to venture off the main highways. You'll navigate through classic Australian countryside, encountering the kind of natural terrain that makes regional off-roading rewarding without excessive technical difficulty.

The trail's modest length makes it perfect for incorporating into a broader exploration of the area or as a warm-up route before tackling more challenging terrain nearby. The terrain here is relatively straightforward, allowing you to focus on enjoying the surrounding landscape and local flora. While the trail presents no significant steep grades, you should still ensure your vehicle is in good working order and carry essential recovery gear—standard precautions for any off-road adventure in remote areas.

Before heading out, check local conditions as seasonal weather can affect track quality in this region. The lack of previous recorded attempts on Newtracs suggests this remains a lesser-known route, which means you could be among the first to log your experience and contribute valuable trail data. Bring plenty of water, let someone know your route, and take your time exploring what the Mid Murray has to offer.
