Bennets Trail

Bennets Trail offers 4WD enthusiasts a rewarding short-course experience near Possum Brush, combining accessibility with genuine off-road character. You'll navigate 1.3 km of varied terrain that keeps things interesting without overwhelming novice or intermediate drivers—perfect for testing your vehicle's capabilities or sharpening your technique in a manageable timeframe.

The trail takes you through classic NSW bushland with a mix of rocky sections and rougher ground that demands careful line selection and steady throttle control. You'll appreciate the natural obstacles scattered throughout, which require thoughtful navigation rather than aggressive driving. The scenery showcases the region's native vegetation, and the moderate challenges mean you can actually enjoy your surroundings rather than white-knuckling through the entire route. At an 11-minute average completion time, this is ideal for combining with other local trails or fitting into a day of mixed 4WD adventures.

Come prepared with standard recovery gear and ensure your vehicle is in good working order—while there's no steep grade to contend with, the rocky patches demand solid ground clearance and reasonable articulation. Check conditions beforehand, as recent weather can affect grip and visibility. This trail has proven popular with the small community of drivers who've tackled it, and you'll understand why once you experience its blend of challenge and scenic appeal.
