Wicks Lane

Wicks Lane offers 4WD enthusiasts an accessible off-road experience near Boorowa, combining rural charm with genuine backcountry exploration. This 1.7 km route takes you through the heart of the Southern Tablelands, where you'll navigate quiet country lanes and discover the quieter side of NSW's inland regions. The relatively flat terrain makes this trail ideal for those building their off-road skills or seeking a leisurely drive through authentic Australian bushland.

You'll find yourself traversing well-defined tracks that wind through mixed woodland and open grazing country. The scenery transitions between tree-lined sections offering dappled shade and wider vistas across rolling hills typical of the Boorowa district. While the grade presents no extreme challenges, you should remain alert for loose gravel, potential ruts from seasonal rainfall, and the occasional gate that may require opening and closing. Stock movements are common in this agricultural area, so keep an eye out for livestock on the track.

The Newtracs app can help you track your progress and mark waypoints along the route. With zero reported completions, you'll have the chance to be among the first to document this hidden gem and help build the community knowledge base for this quiet corner of New South Wales.
