tasmania 4x4 tracks

Chasing Tasmania’s best 4x4 tracks? Try Climies Track on the wild West Coast for rocky fun between Trial Harbour and Granville Harbour; it’s slow, scenic, and not for soft-roaders. Sandy Cape is a beauty too—permit needed, watch the tides, and deflate those tyres before the beach sections. The Balfour Track dishes up bogs and water crossings, while the Ring River Track near Zeehan keeps things interesting when it’s wet. Pack recovery gear, a compressor, and a mate with a second vehicle; Tassie weather flips faster than a snag on a hotplate. Check local access rules and permits (Arthur-Pieman has them) and tread lightly—no one likes a rutted mess.
