ONLY FOR THE SERIOUS 4x4\'s!!! NOT FOR SOFTIES OR TOP HEAVY VEHICLES!!!!
Lots of side way action with a bit of a trap! Easier (safer) to enter then it is to exit. A good chance of rolling off a small cliff edge for top heavy vehicles.
Recommend a lift and lockers.
Lots of large bouldery steps even on the hill climbs and descents. The chicken tracks can be Killers too!
Been there again with some members of 4x4Earth and had a great time
Once again I never got to the lookout as I was out of time and left the crew to continue on, next time.

54119 | "Chicken" tracks on the hillclimb out are not very chicken-ie. They where a challange for the hiluxes (no lockers) Would be difficult to do without lift, suitable tyres and experience. Bring tools and recovery gear. Do not go alone, do not go at night without familiarity of area, and certainly not alone. Bent patrol rear lower control arms on climb out, front wheels on top of the rock step. Diff rotated, stuff broke. Had to roll back down and repair. Thrash your car, you probably gunna have a bad time. | Ford Maverick | Apr 20, 2014 |
44717 | I came to the "last" climb and that was end for me. Stock 08 hilux with all terrain tyres very, very difficult. pretty much I was picking the easiest way all the time. Still had a lot of fun. | Toyota Hilux | Dec 1, 2013 |
26511 | great track, this time in the wet and to the end http://youtu.be/95SBWEbqWSg | LandRover Discovery | Nov 16, 2013 |
26511 | great track only made it 3/4 as Sunday afternoon but this is a lot of fun, would recommended to have proper rock sliders, good protection and minimum 2" lift if you don't want to wreck something | LandRover Discovery | Nov 3, 2013 |
26093 | Wow, what fun we had. Did it along with 16 other 4bies. Only 3 truck broke down. 2 parked on the side and the rest made it to the lookout. lots of carnage though. | Toyota Landcruiser | Aug 11, 2013 |
34982 | Good, tough track a lot of fun | Toyota Prado | Jul 25, 2013 |
21151 | Did this track with (Dad) lifted Mitsubishi Triton. | Toyota Hilux | Dec 23, 2012 |
21151 | Did this track by myself, very good track. Will test peoples skills. Definitely going back! | Toyota Hilux | Apr 9, 2012 |
3093 | Good Track. Did in Standard GU IV Patrol | Nissan Patrol | Mar 25, 2012 |
25469 | Completed track with 95 series prado. great challenge of my 150, but left me wanting 33's and another inch of lift | Toyota Prado | Jan 31, 2012 |
25347 | Popped a tyre on one of the climbs. but still had a great day out must try this track soon due to it being on the list to be closed. so if you wanna try it do it soon | Nissan Patrol | Jan 23, 2012 |
24035 | rolled my car came back to pick it up the next morning and it had been stolen my a bunch of dumb craps | Suzuki Sierra | Jan 16, 2012 |
17302 | Made it all the way to the lookout this time. Myself in a Prado 90/33's (dual lockers) with a Prado 150/32's (traction control). We picked hard lines through most of it, but it gets harder towards the end, so we had to choose some "easy" lines. Awesome track! | Toyota Prado | Jan 14, 2012 |
20775 | Went back in the Prado and 3 GU Patrols. Weather was fantastic and got as far as I did last time with out the winch. The day was cut short again when one of the Nissans snapped a rear uni joint. | Toyota Prado | Jan 7, 2012 |
24489 | Did this track solo on the weekend. A bit dry and slippery on some of rutted out steps but generally pretty straight forwards. Was good fun! | Jeep Wrangler | Jan 4, 2012 |
20775 | A great challenge for a rear locked 1" lifted 90 series. I only had to use the winch once. Had to turn back early when torrential rain started. No issues with the exit. | Toyota Prado | Dec 11, 2011 |
17302 | Finally took this challenge on and had some great fun! Three Prado's managed to get about 3/4 in before a heavy storm came along and swayed us into leaving. Can't wait for next time! For reference; a 2" lifted 90 series can get by with locker and winch. A 2" lifted 120 series will bottom out, a lot. | Toyota Prado | Dec 11, 2011 |
17917 | Got to the look out and back with 2 other Defenders and an 80 series, no dramas accept for a lost mudflap and a bent side step. Trip report with vids in the forum. | LandRover Defender | Nov 5, 2011 |

3629 | Mitsubishi Pajero | Oct 7, 2011 | |
21972 | Good track quite washed out, big steps if you want to but even the chicken tracks can be difficult if not lifted. Made it to the end with lift, no lockers and no winch. A Hilux with us bent the rear tailshaft early and had to stop. | Nissan Patrol | Sep 24, 2011 |
17457 | not a bad track, good morning out, some big steps. looks a lot worse than what it is. | Nissan Patrol | Sep 3, 2011 |
