Plunketts Lane

You'll discover a genuine back-country experience on Plunketts Lane, a short but authentic 4WD route that rewards adventurous drivers seeking quieter terrain near Moyhu. This 1.6 km trail offers an intimate exploration of Victoria's rural landscape, where you can test your vehicle's capabilities without the crowds found on more established tracks. The route winds through mixed countryside with varied ground conditions that will keep you engaged throughout your drive.

The terrain presents an interesting mix of surfaces typical of working agricultural land, with natural obstacles and uneven ground that demand attentive driving. You'll navigate through sections where vegetation encroaches on the path and natural water management features create dynamic driving challenges. The relatively modest length makes it perfect for combining with other nearby trails or as a training route for refining your off-road skills and vehicle handling.

As an unrated trail with no recorded traffic history, Plunketts Lane remains largely unspoiled—though this also means you should come well-prepared. Bring a recovery kit, extra water, and communication devices, as you may encounter minimal other users. Check local conditions before heading out, as seasonal changes can significantly affect drivability.
