Camp Trail

If you're seeking a genuine test of your 4WD's capabilities near the NSW mid-north coast, Camp Trail delivers an unforgiving challenge that demands respect and precision. This short but brutal 1.7 km route near Glenreagh packs serious technical difficulty into a compact distance, with a relentless 15% grade that'll have you working hard to maintain momentum and control.

You'll navigate steep, rutted terrain that requires careful line selection and confident vehicle handling. The landscape showcases the rugged beauty of the region, with dense native vegetation flanking the narrow track. Conditions can be treacherous—especially after wet weather—so approach with caution and ensure your vehicle is well-maintained with quality tyres and reliable brakes. High-clearance suspension is essential, and you should have recovery gear on hand in case you need assistance.
