Permit Track

Permit Track offers 4WD enthusiasts a compact exploration opportunity near Fernbank, Victoria, where you'll discover what makes this short route worth adding to your off-road adventures. Despite its modest 0.4 km length, you'll navigate terrain that rewards careful vehicle handling and attention to track conditions. The relatively flat gradient means you can focus on line selection and obstacle awareness rather than managing steep descents, making this an ideal warm-up run or technical practice session for drivers refining their skills.

The surrounding landscape showcases typical Victorian countryside character, with you encountering a mix of track surfaces and natural obstacles that test your vehicle's articulation and ground clearance. While the short distance might suggest a quick passage, you'll find that quality trumps quantity here—every metre demands respect and precision. Before heading out, ensure your vehicle is in top mechanical condition, carry essential recovery gear, and check current track conditions, as weather can quickly impact drivability on these forest roads. The absence of previous tracked data on Newtracs makes this an opportunity to document your experience and contribute valuable intel to the community.
