Jamieson Lookout Track

You'll discover why Jamieson Lookout Track has earned its reputation as a rewarding medium-difficulty adventure in Victoria's high country. This 9.7 km route combines technical driving with stunning alpine scenery, offering that perfect balance between challenge and accessibility for intermediate 4WD enthusiasts. The track's 19% steep grades demand respect and proper vehicle control, particularly through erosion-prone sections where careful line selection becomes essential.

As you navigate the winding path, you'll experience diverse terrain that keeps you engaged throughout the 53-minute journey. Rocky outcrops and rut-carved sections test your suspension and driving skills, while the surrounding landscape rewards your efforts with expansive views over the High Country. The varied surface conditions—from compacted earth to loose scree—mean you'll need to stay alert and adjust your driving style accordingly.

Before heading out, ensure your vehicle is in good condition with adequate ground clearance and proper recovery gear on board. The steep grades mean engine braking is your friend on descent, and deflating tyres slightly can improve traction on loose sections.
