Scrub Road

Scrub Road offers 4WD drivers a genuine backcountry experience near Wandillup, where you'll navigate a compact but challenging route through Western Australian bushland. This 1.8 km trail delivers concentrated off-road driving with an 8% grade that demands respect and proper vehicle setup, making it ideal for drivers wanting to test their skills on unrated terrain without committing to lengthy expeditions.

You'll encounter variable ground conditions typical of inland WA scrubland, where sandy patches and rocky sections keep you engaged throughout the short but intense drive. The surrounding vegetation and natural landscape provide authentic outback atmosphere, though the compact length means you should come prepared to make the most of your time here. The steep gradient requires careful throttle control and good line selection—this isn't a casual cruise.

Before heading out, ensure your vehicle is in top mechanical condition and carry essential recovery gear. Check local conditions beforehand, as weather can significantly impact ground conditions in this region. While Scrub Road remains untracked by the Newtracs community so far, it represents exactly the kind of challenging, lesser-known route that serious 4WD enthusiasts seek. This is your opportunity to leave the first track record and contribute to the community's growing knowledge of WA's remote driving routes.
