Cobb Spur Track

You'll find the Cobb Spur Track offers the perfect introduction to intermediate 4WD driving near the picturesque town of Licola. This 3.3 km route delivers an enjoyable blend of challenging terrain and scenic high country views, making it ideal for drivers looking to build their skills without overwhelming difficulty. The modest 3% grade keeps things manageable while still providing genuine engagement with the landscape.

As you navigate the track, you'll experience the authentic Victorian High Country environment—rolling terrain interspersed with forest sections that demand careful line selection and vehicle control. The relatively short 12-minute average completion time makes this perfect for combining with other local trails or fitting into a half-day adventure. You should be prepared for variable track conditions typical of alpine regions, including potential water crossings and loose gravel surfaces, so ensure your vehicle has adequate clearance and your tyres provide good traction.
