Sammuels Road

You'll discover an intriguing short route near North Walpole that offers 4WD enthusiasts a chance to explore Western Australia's remote backcountry. Sammuels Road presents a compact 1.9 km stretch of driving that, while unrated and lightly travelled, provides an opportunity to access lesser-known terrain in this sparsely populated region. The flat gradient means you won't face steep climbs, making it accessible for a wider range of vehicles and skill levels.

The route takes you through typical Walpole district landscape, where you can experience the quieter side of Western Australia's inland areas. With minimal traffic and few recorded visitors, you'll likely enjoy solitude as you navigate the track. The relatively short distance makes this an ideal leg to combine with other nearby routes, or a quick exploration if you're passing through the region.

Before heading out, ensure your vehicle is equipped for remote travel—carry adequate water, fuel, and recovery gear, as services are sparse in this area. Check current track conditions, as seasonal weather can impact accessibility. While the terrain itself isn't technically demanding, the isolation demands respect and preparation. Using the Newtracs app to track your route and location will help ensure you stay oriented in this quiet corner of Western Australia.
