Patrol Track

You'll discover a hidden gem near Cheshunt that offers 4WD drivers a chance to explore Victoria's backcountry away from the crowds. The Patrol Track presents an accessible yet rewarding 2.5 km journey through rural terrain, making it ideal for those looking to test their vehicle's capabilities on a manageable route. With a gentle 3% grade throughout, you'll experience a relatively straightforward drive that still demands attention to track conditions and vehicle awareness.

The landscape unfolds with typical Victorian bushland scenery, featuring natural forest coverage and open track sections that provide variety during your run. You should prepare for variable ground conditions—sections may be rutted or overgrown depending on seasonal rainfall and maintenance schedules. Pack basic recovery gear and ensure your vehicle is in good working order before setting out, as assistance can be limited in this remote area near Cheshunt.

This unrated track remains relatively undocumented in the community, presenting an opportunity for adventurous drivers to experience something less travelled. While completion typically takes minimal time given the short distance, the real value lies in the exploration and the chance to develop your 4WD skills on terrain that rewards careful driving over speed.
