Box Track

Box Track offers 4WD drivers a satisfying medium-difficulty run through diverse terrain just minutes from Beaufort. You'll navigate a mix of gravel, dirt, and rocky sections that provide genuine traction challenges without overwhelming inexperienced off-roaders. The 3.2 km route winds through scenic woodland and open country, giving you varied driving conditions that keep the experience engaging throughout the relatively short completion time of around 13 minutes.

The terrain here rewards smooth throttle control and good line choice rather than raw power. You'll encounter rutted sections, uneven surfaces, and rocky patches that demand attention but remain forgiving—the absence of steep grades means you can focus on precision driving. The landscape opens up periodically to reveal pleasant rural vistas typical of the Beaufort region, making this an ideal trail for building confidence in moderate off-road conditions.

Before heading out, ensure your vehicle is in good mechanical condition with adequate tire grip and ground clearance for the rougher sections. The trail is relatively well-established, so navigation is straightforward, though having a GPS or the Newtracs app on hand helps you stay oriented and track your progress. This is an excellent choice if you want genuine off-road experience without committing to a full-day expedition.
