Monument Track

Monument Track delivers an adrenaline-pumping challenge for experienced 4WD drivers seeking genuine alpine terrain near Mount Buller. You'll navigate steep rocky sections with a relentless 20% grade that demands precise vehicle control and confident driving skills. The 3.2 km route packs considerable technical difficulty into a compact distance, making every meter count as you ascend through rugged mountain landscape. Expect rocky outcrops, tight switchbacks, and loose surface conditions that will test both your vehicle's capabilities and your nerves.

The scenic payoff justifies the intensity—you'll push through dense alpine vegetation with panoramic views across Victoria's high country as your reward. However, this isn't a trail for casual weekend explorers. You'll need a capable 4WD with good ground clearance, quality tyres for traction on loose rock, and genuine off-road experience. Weather conditions change rapidly at this elevation, so check conditions before heading out and ensure you have recovery gear aboard. With 354 previous drivers logged on Newtracs, you're joining a selective group who've conquered this beast.

The technical nature means you should take your time—the 28-minute average completion time reflects careful, methodical driving rather than speed. Bring extra water, communicate your route to someone, and consider tackling this with a driving buddy for safety.
