Harris Point Road

Harris Point Road delivers an adrenaline-pumping challenge that'll test your 4WD's capabilities and your nerve. This hard-rated trail near Jilliby serves up the kind of demanding terrain that separates casual weekend warriors from serious off-road drivers. You'll navigate steep grades reaching 8% that demand respect and precision, with every metre requiring your full attention and vehicle control.

The 1.2 km route packs serious punch into a compact distance, with an average completion time of 36 minutes that reflects the technical difficulty you'll encounter. You're looking at rugged terrain that punishes hesitation—loose surfaces, sharp elevation changes, and challenging ascents will keep your hands gripping the wheel throughout. The surrounding landscape offers little respite, with sparse vegetation providing minimal shade as you work through the most technical sections.

Before tackling Harris Point Road, ensure your vehicle is in peak condition with quality tyres, properly functioning brakes, and a full fuel tank. You'll want to go in daylight with a spotter if possible, and check conditions using Newtracs' trail information before heading out.
