Connection Track

Challenge yourself on the Connection Track, a demanding 4WD route that packs serious technical difficulty into a compact 0.7 km package near Landsborough. Don't let the short distance fool you—this hard-rated trail demands precision driving and vehicle control as you navigate through rugged terrain that tests both your skills and your rig's capabilities. The concentrated technical challenges make this an ideal spot to push your boundaries without committing to a lengthy expedition.

As you tackle the Connection Track, you'll encounter rocky outcrops and challenging ground conditions that require careful line selection and confident throttle control. The varied terrain keeps you engaged throughout the brief 11-minute drive, with each section presenting its own obstacles that demand your full attention. The surrounding bushland scenery provides a pleasant backdrop to the serious driving work ahead, offering a genuine off-road experience despite the trail's compact size.

Before heading out, ensure your vehicle is in top mechanical condition and properly equipped for hard-rated terrain. Lower your tyre pressures appropriately for improved traction, and consider travelling with another vehicle for safety. With only two previous vehicles having completed this track, you'll be venturing into relatively untrafficked territory—making it essential to carry recovery gear, communication devices, and spare supplies. Check current conditions via the Newtracs app before departure to ensure the track remains passable.
