1 long day trip, 9 and a half hours of driving. Some technical 4WD experience required. Right through the heart of the Snowy River National Park.

Terrain involved rocky outcrops and shale tracks, numerous river crossings, hard clay to slightly soft dirt tracks some extremely steep uphill and downhill sections. St Joan Staircase prooving to be the most challenging. We spent 45mins cutting up a large tree that had fallen across the track later on in the drive.

Recommend taking a chainsaw, and standard recovery items (snatch strap at a minimum). Having some 4WD experience, or travelling with someone that is experienced. Also need to pick an appropriate month to travel. This track gets closed over winter, water heights at river crossings is dependent on rainfall and seasons.
