Quarry Track

You'll discover an intriguing slice of Tasmania's industrial heritage on Quarry Track, a short but characterful route that takes you through abandoned quarry workings near Bakers Beach. This medium-difficulty trail offers 4WD enthusiasts a unique opportunity to explore evidence of Tasmania's stone extraction history, with weathered quarry faces and scattered stone remnants creating an atmospheric landscape that few casual visitors experience.

The 0.2 km route traverses relatively gentle terrain with no steep grades, making it accessible for drivers seeking an easy introduction to off-road driving without sacrificing adventure or visual interest. You'll navigate through the quarry site itself, encountering rutted sections and rocky patches that provide just enough technical challenge to keep things engaging. The coastal proximity means you're never far from Bakers Beach, so combining this trail with a beach visit makes for a rewarding half-day exploration.

Before heading out, check local conditions as wet weather can create slippery clay surfaces within the quarry area. Bring water and sun protection—there's minimal shade once you're among the workings. With 17 vehicles already logged on Newtracs, you'll be joining a growing community of explorers discovering Tasmania's hidden industrial past. The short duration means you can tackle this multiple times or link it with nearby coastal drives for a fuller adventure.
