Old Gardens Road

Old Gardens Road offers 4WD drivers a chance to explore a lesser-known corner of Tasmania's scenic northeast coast near Binalong Bay. This 3-kilometre route takes you through terrain that rewards curious explorers willing to venture off the main highways and discover what rural Tasmania has to offer. You'll navigate a mix of conditions as you traverse this unrated track, experiencing the driving challenge that comes with exploring established but unmaintained routes in the region.

The journey combines pastoral and natural landscape as you make your way along the road, with the character and conditions typical of rural Tasmanian routes. You should be prepared for variable track conditions—including potential soft sections, ruts, and obstacles—so approach with appropriate caution and vehicle preparation. While the grade presents no steep challenges, the unrated status means conditions can be unpredictable, so arriving well-equipped with recovery gear and local knowledge is essential.

This is ideal territory for adventurous drivers looking to build their off-road experience and explore beyond well-worn paths. Before heading out, check current conditions and ensure your vehicle is suitable for remote driving. The lack of previous driver data makes this a genuine exploration opportunity—use the Newtracs app to log your experience and help build the community knowledge around this track.
