Spur Track

If you're seeking a serious test of your 4WD's climbing ability, Spur Track near Woods Point will deliver exactly that. This punishing 1.8 km challenge features a relentless 32% grade that demands respect, precision, and a vehicle genuinely suited to extreme terrain. You'll tackle steep ascents that leave no room for error, with the trail pushing both driver skill and mechanical capability to their limits.

The short but intense nature of Spur Track means you can expect to complete the full route in around 12 minutes—though those minutes will feel considerably longer as you navigate the aggressive gradient.

Rocky outcrops and variable surface conditions keep you engaged throughout, requiring constant adjustment to your driving technique.

Before attempting this Hard-rated trail, ensure your 4WD is in top mechanical condition with quality tyres offering genuine off-road grip.
