Nason Track

You'll find the Nason Track a punchy test of your vehicle's capability just south of Wangaratta. This 1km route delivers a genuine off-road challenge despite its short length, with a demanding 15% grade that'll have your 4WD working hard to maintain traction. The steep ascent means you'll need proper momentum and solid vehicle control to navigate successfully, making it an excellent workout for your driving skills without committing hours to the trail.

The terrain is unforgiving but rewarding—rocky sections and loose surface combine to create an engaging driving experience that keeps you focused from start to finish. You should approach with appropriate tyre pressure and differential lock engagement if your vehicle permits, as the gradient leaves little room for hesitation. The exposed nature of the track means weather conditions can quickly affect traction, so check conditions before heading out and avoid attempting this route after heavy rain when grip becomes critically compromised.

Despite its modest length, don't underestimate the Nason Track. This is a trail that separates casual enthusiasts from serious off-roaders, testing both mechanical sympathy and driver confidence. With only two successful completions recorded, you'll be joining an exclusive group of adventurers who've tackled this genuine medium-difficulty challenge.
