Moonkan Trail

The Moonkan Trail delivers a rewarding off-road experience that balances accessibility with genuine adventure near Yalmy. You'll navigate varied terrain that tests your vehicle control without demanding expert-level skills, making this an ideal medium-difficulty route for drivers looking to build confidence or enjoy a satisfying weekend drive. The 8.4 km route takes approximately 44 minutes to complete, giving you plenty of time to appreciate the surrounding landscape and take on the trail's challenges at a steady pace.

As you progress along Moonkan, expect a mix of rutted sections and more open terrain that showcases the distinctive character of Victoria's high country. The gentle 3% average grade keeps the trail manageable, though you'll encounter variable surface conditions that require attentive driving. You should come prepared with appropriate tyre pressures and basic recovery gear—while the trail is well-established, the mixed conditions mean you'll benefit from having supplies on hand. The relatively low traffic (only two previous Newtracs users) means you may experience solitude, so ensure someone knows your planned route and expected return time.
