Landmark Tank Track

The Landmark Tank Track offers 4WD enthusiasts an accessible introduction to off-road driving in Victoria's remote Murray-Sunset region. You'll traverse a gentle, well-defined track that winds through authentic outback landscape, making this an ideal choice for newer drivers or those looking to build confidence in their vehicles. The 8-kilometre route showcases the stark beauty of mallee scrubland with minimal elevation change, allowing you to focus on enjoying the scenery rather than wrestling with challenging terrain.

The driving experience is straightforward and forgiving—you'll find relatively firm ground conditions with minimal ruts or obstacles, making vehicle recovery unlikely. However, don't let the easy rating fool you into complacency. The remote location means you should carry adequate water, fuel, and supplies before heading out. Mobile coverage can be spotty, so download your route details on the Newtracs app beforehand. The track's name comes from a historic landmark visible from the route, a reminder of the area's pastoral heritage.

This trail is perfect for a quick outing or as a warm-up before tackling more demanding tracks in the region. The straightforward nature means you'll complete it in around 11 minutes of actual driving time, leaving plenty of daylight for exploring the wider area or enjoying a rest stop at the landmark itself. Whether you're testing new equipment or introducing someone to off-road driving, Landmark Tank Track delivers a rewarding experience without unnecessary complications.
