You'll tackle a challenging 12% grade that demands respect and proper technique, making this 1.5 km route the perfect testing ground for drivers ready to step up from easier trails. The steep sections reward smooth throttle control and steady line choice, keeping you engaged throughout the 8-minute run.

The terrain here is varied and visually rewarding. You'll navigate through mixed woodland and open sections, with the landscape shifting beneath your wheels as you climb and descend. Rocky outcrops and natural ruts keep things interesting, while the Victorian bushland scenery provides a pleasant backdrop to your driving challenge. The combination of gradient and terrain means you'll be actively managing your vehicle rather than cruising—exactly what makes this trail popular with the 104+ drivers who've already conquered it.

Come prepared for the conditions. Check your vehicle's traction and braking systems before attempting the steeper sections, and ensure your tyres are in good shape for grip on potentially loose surfaces. The short length means you can repeat runs and refine your technique, or use this as a confidence builder before tackling longer, more demanding tracks.
