Cynthia Range Track

Cynthia Range Track runs near Crooked River in Victoria and ranks as a medium-difficulty four-wheel drive trail. The data on this 2.1 km track shows a steep grade of 55 percent, which is the defining characteristic drivers will encounter. One hundred and nine vehicles have logged this track on Newtracs, providing a solid baseline for conditions and performance expectations.

The drive takes an average of 19 minutes to complete. Surface conditions vary, and the sustained steep gradient demands a capable vehicle with good weight distribution and responsive braking. The grade is steep enough to require deliberate line choice and smooth throttle control. Low-range engagement is standard for this section. You'll need a vehicle with adequate ground clearance and reliable engine braking, particularly on descent. The track length is short, but the gradient concentration means this is not a casual run. Prepare for loose or rutted sections typical of steep terrain in the region.

This is a medium-rated track—not beginner terrain, but manageable for drivers with four-wheel drive experience and a vehicle suited to gradient work. Drivers log their run data and track conditions through Newtracs as they complete it, which is how the difficulty rating and completion times above are maintained.
