Perimeter Track

If you're seeking the ultimate test of your 4WD's capabilities and your own nerve, the Perimeter Track near Glenburn will deliver. This extreme-rated challenge compresses heart-pounding difficulty into just 1.2 km, demanding technical skill, mechanical reliability, and nerves of steel. Only 23 vehicles have successfully conquered this notorious route, and you'll understand why within minutes of starting.

The track assaults you with a punishing 10% grade that'll have your vehicle working overtime while you navigate deeply rutted terrain and unforgiving obstacles. You'll need a winch to safely negotiate the most treacherous sections—this isn't optional equipment, it's essential survival gear. The surrounding landscape offers little comfort; exposed rock, tight vegetation, and steep drop-offs remind you that mistakes here carry serious consequences. Average completion times hover around 17 minutes, though every second feels like an eternity as you carefully manage throttle, momentum, and line selection.

Before attempting Perimeter Track, ensure your vehicle is in pristine mechanical condition and your recovery equipment is flawless. This trail demands respect, preparation, and ideally, experienced spotters. The Newtracs app provides detailed trail tracking to help you navigate the course and monitor your progress. Only tackle this beast if you're genuinely confident in your 4WD skills and vehicle capability—there's no shame in recognizing your limits on terrain this extreme.
