Premier Track

Premier Track demands respect from even the most experienced 4WD drivers. This extreme alpine route near Genoa pushes your vehicle and skills to their absolute limits, with only a handful of brave adventurers having conquered its 11.1 km length. You'll tackle steep grades and technical terrain that separates the weekend warriors from the serious off-road enthusiasts—a winch isn't optional here, it's essential.

The trail takes you through pristine Victorian wilderness, but beauty comes with brutal challenges. You'll navigate multiple river crossings where water depth and current require careful line selection and precise throttle control. The landscape shifts from forest sections to exposed alpine terrain, offering stunning views that make each hard-won metre worthwhile. Steep pitches demand constant attention to vehicle weight distribution and traction control.

Preparation is non-negotiable for Premier Track. Beyond your winch and recovery gear, bring a spotter, full tank, and comprehensive tool kit. Check recent weather conditions—these crossings become treacherous after heavy rain, and the exposed sections demand clear visibility. The 45-minute average completion time assumes you're moving confidently, but ego has no place here. Use the Newtracs app to download offline maps before you venture out, ensuring you can navigate every technical section even if signal drops. This isn't a trail you conquer casually; it's a mission that rewards preparation, skill, and respect for the terrain.
