Head off the highway and explore some of the best 4WD areas Australia has to offer, with an endless number of tracks available that vary from easy to extremely difficult. And if you don’t have your own 4WD, one of the many tour operators will provide you with a hassle free adventure and one or two adventure stories of their own. Even motorbike trail riding tours are available.

With Dinner Plain located centrally, the Alpine National Park stretches from Walhalla in Victoria’s south-east to Canberra, Australia’s capital city, and is an excellent place to spend a weekend, a week or even a month four-wheel driving. However, many tracks in the Alpine National Park close during the winter period (June to November) so check with Parks Victoria during these times.

Meet nature on its own terms in this park that protects the state’s highest mountains and pristine alpine environments. Some of the tracks deep in the park are for experienced four wheel drivers only, but there are many other tracks where you can get away, enjoy beautiful views, and appreciate the quiet wonder of the alps.

Some of the many 4wd options include :

Dinner Plain Track to Dargo, returning via the Dargo High Plains Road and Mt Hotham

The Twins Jeep Track dropping down from Mt St Bernard into the Buckland Valley

Blue Rag Range - spectacular ridge top views

There a rane of publications and maps that detail the numerous areas that can be explored by 4WD, along with details on how easy or difficult the tracks may be depending upon experience level. Contact the Dinner Plain Visitor Information Centre for more details.
