Sun Flats Road offers 4WD enthusiasts an accessible introduction to off-road driving in Tasmania's scenic Goulds Country region. This gentle 1.5 km route is perfect for those building their confidence behind the wheel or testing out recently acquired vehicles on varied terrain without intimidating obstacles.

With virtually no technical hazards and a completion time of just five minutes, you'll want standard off-road preparation—ensure your vehicle is in good working order and carry water and basic supplies. The trail's accessibility makes it an excellent choice for family outings or as a shakedown run.
