B Road

You'll discover B Road offers an authentic exploration of Victoria's rural backcountry near Shelley, providing 4WD drivers with a chance to venture away from conventional highways. This 6-kilometre route winds through genuine countryside terrain, giving you a taste of off-road driving through quieter agricultural landscapes. The gradual nature of the track makes it accessible for drivers looking to build confidence in their vehicle handling on unsealed roads.

As you traverse B Road, you'll experience the varied textures of rural Victorian terrain, from compacted earth sections to potentially rougher patches depending on seasonal conditions. The relatively flat grade means you can focus on smooth line choices and vehicle control rather than tackling extreme elevation changes. The journey takes you through open country scenery typical of the Shelley district, offering a peaceful alternative to busier tourist routes.

Before heading out, come prepared with the essentials—carry water, a spare tyre, and basic recovery gear, as this remote rural setting offers limited services. Check local conditions beforehand, as unsealed roads can vary significantly after rain. Using the Newtracs app to track your progress will help you navigate confidently while building familiarity with the route. This is ideal for intermediate drivers wanting to develop their skills in a low-pressure environment.
