This 2.2 km circuit delivers genuine off-road driving satisfaction in just 19 minutes, making it ideal for those looking to test their vehicle's capabilities on genuine terrain without committing to a full-day expedition.

The trail takes you through classic sandy country with varied ground conditions that keep you engaged throughout the drive.

The sandy surface is forgiving enough for newer 4WD drivers to build confidence, yet technical enough to remain interesting for experienced drivers looking for a quick afternoon run.
