You'll discover why Googs Track is a favourite among 4WD enthusiasts seeking genuine outback adventure without the technical challenge. This 118-kilometre route near Yellabinna delivers quintessential South Australian semi-arid landscape—wide open plains, sparse vegetation, and expansive skies that stretch to the horizon. The track's flat terrain and well-defined path make it perfect for drivers building their off-road confidence or families wanting to explore remote country at a relaxed pace.
The driving experience is straightforward and rewarding, with consistent conditions allowing you to maintain steady progress across the landscape. You'll encounter typical outback surfaces that remain forgiving throughout the journey, meaning even less experienced drivers can handle this trail comfortably. The lack of steep grades means your focus stays on navigation and enjoying the scenery rather than technical vehicle control.
Before heading out, ensure you're well-prepared for remote travel: carry adequate water, fuel, and supplies, as services are distant from this route. Check weather conditions beforehand, as outback tracks can change rapidly after rain. Your Newtracs app will provide detailed navigation and waypoint tracking to keep you on course through this captivating stretch of South Australian wilderness.
