Old Dray Track

You'll discover why the Old Dray Track near Crediton has earned its reputation as a serious 4WD challenge despite its modest 3.8 km length. This hard-rated trail demands respect and precision driving, rewarding experienced operators with technical obstacles that test your vehicle's articulation and your own off-road skills.
