Keith Track

Challenge yourself on one of Tasmania's most demanding 4WD experiences—the Keith Track near the West Coast offers serious terrain that'll test your vehicle's capabilities and your driving skills. You'll navigate steep grades reaching 6% as you traverse remote forest trails that demand precision handling and respect for the environment. The rugged landscape showcases the raw beauty of Tasmania's wilderness, with dense vegetation flanking narrow sections and natural obstacles keeping you fully engaged throughout the 14.5 km route.

Expect a full three hours and 47 minutes of intense driving across this hard-rated track. You'll encounter unforgiving terrain that requires a capable 4WD with good ground clearance and solid recovery equipment. The combination of steep descents, tight switchbacks, and unpredictable ground conditions means you should arrive well-prepared with extra fuel, water, and supplies. Weather can change rapidly in this region, so check conditions before departure and consider bringing a recovery kit.

This is genuinely challenging terrain—only two vehicles have successfully completed the Keith Track in Newtracs records, making it a genuine test of both machine and driver. Use the Newtracs app to track your progress and share your achievement with the 4WD community. Come prepared, drive carefully, and you'll experience one of Tasmania's most rewarding off-road adventures.
