Amblers Trk runs north from O\'Briens Rd to Chettle Rd then continues north ending on the out skirts of Trentham.
Amblers Trk features an easy start progressing to periods of steep decent to the creek and camping area. Exiting the camping area continuing north the track climbs steeply with some washouts but levelling off closer to Chettle Rd.
Amblers Trk should be traversed by low range vehicles only. HT tyres are appropriate for dry conditions only. With heavy rain, Amblers turns into an almost Double Diamond track with very slippery clay, very soft deep edges which will necessitate recovery. A LC and Pajero with camper trailers could not get out after a day of heavy rain requiring a tractor to recovery them.
The camping area is quite, situated adjacent to the creek and a good three meters above creek level. There are two purpose built fire/bbq facilities but no toilets. The creek was about 200mm deep after a week of no rain in December. It\'s approximately 15metres wide providing a great opportunity for beginners to traverse a waterway. The base is smooth rock.
