You'll navigate a 3.1 km route that pushes your vehicle and driving skills without demanding expert-level experience, making it ideal for intermediate 4WD enthusiasts looking to build confidence on tougher tracks.

The trail's signature feature is its steep 8% grade, which you'll encounter as you work through sections that demand careful throttle control and proper line selection.
