Myrtle Dell Road

Myrtle Dell Road offers 4WD enthusiasts a chance to explore a lesser-known route near Preolenna in Tasmania's rugged countryside. This short but scenic 1.0 km stretch provides an accessible introduction to off-road driving in the region, making it ideal for those new to 4WD adventures or looking to add another track to their Tasmanian collection.

You'll discover a relatively straightforward drive through rural terrain that showcases the natural character of northwest Tasmania. The track winds through open farmland and bushland, offering glimpses of the surrounding landscape without demanding extreme technical skills. The gentle grades mean you can focus on enjoying the scenery rather than wrestling with challenging obstacles, though you should still maintain alertness for any weathered sections or drainage ruts that may have developed.

Before heading out, check local conditions as this remote route can be affected by recent rainfall—even gentle terrain becomes slippery when wet. Bring recovery gear and let someone know your plans, as mobile reception may be limited in this area. While no vehicles have yet logged this trail on Newtracs, that's part of its appeal: you'll be among the first to document your experience on the platform. Consider it a hidden gem waiting for 4WD explorers ready to venture off the well-trodden path.
