Mount Baldy Track

Mount Baldy Track offers 4WD enthusiasts an accessible introduction to off-road driving in Victoria's alpine regions. You'll enjoy a straightforward 5.6 km route near Tom Groggin that combines ease of driving with genuinely rewarding scenery, making it perfect for families or those building confidence in their 4WD capabilities.

The trail takes you through open woodland and grassland terrain with minimal technical demands—there's no steep gradient to negotiate, just consistent, manageable tracks that let you focus on the landscape unfolding around you. You'll experience sweeping views across the surrounding ranges and alpine vegetation as you climb gradually toward Mount Baldy's summit area. The driving experience is relaxed and forgiving, allowing you to appreciate the natural environment rather than concentrating intensely on vehicle placement.

Before heading out, standard 4WD preparation applies: check your vehicle's condition, carry adequate water and supplies, and review current track conditions. While the terrain itself presents minimal hazards, weather can change quickly in alpine areas, so plan your departure accordingly. The 11-minute average completion time makes this an ideal warm-up trail or a scenic detour on a longer journey through the region. With eight previous successful drives logged on Newtracs, you can feel confident tackling this route.
