Second Avenue

Second Avenue offers 4WD adventurers a compelling journey through South Australia's remote outback, delivering authentic off-road exploration near Maralinga Tjarutja. You'll traverse 24.3 kilometres of unrated terrain that rewards experienced drivers with solitude and raw Australian landscape. The track cuts through vast, open country where red earth and sparse vegetation create a stark, captivating environment—a true test of your navigation skills and vehicle capability in one of the continent's most isolated regions.

The driving experience alternates between established track sections and more challenging terrain that demands your full attention. You'll encounter variable ground conditions typical of outback tracks, including potential rocky sections and soft sand patches that require careful throttle management and solid vehicle setup. The lack of previous driver data on this route means you're venturing into relatively uncharted territory, so thorough preparation is essential. Ensure your vehicle is well-maintained, carry adequate water and recovery equipment, and consider downloading the Newtracs app to track your progress and document your journey through this remote corner of the outback.

This trail suits experienced 4WD operators comfortable with self-reliance and navigation in remote areas. There are no steep grades to navigate, but the isolation and variable conditions demand respect and proper planning before you depart.
