Log Road

You'll discover an intriguing remote logging route near Carlotta that offers 4WD drivers a chance to explore Western Australia's working forest landscape. Log Road presents an accessible yet authentic off-road experience, taking you through 4.4 kilometres of terrain shaped by timber harvesting operations. The relatively flat grade makes this trail approachable for various skill levels, though the logging environment means you should expect variable ground conditions and the remnants of forestry activity throughout your journey.

The drive showcases the rugged beauty of Western Australia's inland regions, with dense vegetation flanking the track and occasional clearings revealing the area's industrial heritage. You'll navigate through sections that demand careful attention to ruts and debris scattered across the path—typical hazards of maintained logging roads. Before heading out, ensure your 4WD is well-maintained with good ground clearance, and bring recovery gear in case you encounter soft patches or embedded obstacles.

Since this trail remains largely untested on Newtracs, you're venturing into relatively uncharted territory. That means carrying extra fuel, water, and supplies is essential, along with communication devices for emergencies. The lack of official difficulty ratings shouldn't deter experienced drivers—it simply means you'll be among the first to document this route and contribute valuable insights to the community through the Newtracs app.
