Px Track

If you're craving a genuine test of your 4WD's climbing ability without committing to a full day of remote exploration, Px Track delivers exactly what you need. This 1.3 km gem near Gapsted punches well above its weight, featuring a relentless 45% gradient that will have you working the throttle and carefully managing weight transfer as you push uphill. The steep terrain demands respect and precision—this isn't a casual cruise, but rather a focused technical challenge that rewards smooth throttle control and good vehicle setup.

You'll navigate through rugged Victorian bushland where the landscape steams past in concentrated bursts of intensity. The short duration means you can bang out multiple runs in a session, making it perfect for honing your climbing technique or testing modifications. Before tackling Px Track, ensure your tyres have solid tread for grip on potentially loose surfaces, check your vehicle's cooling system (those steep grades generate serious heat), and bring a recovery point in case you need a mate to winch you out. The track has seen 19 vehicles successfully complete it, so you're following a proven route—but that 45% grade still demands your full attention and respect for the terrain.
