A few weekends ago, Venom, El Freddo, a late model Pajero & myself headed to Walhalla in Victoria Australia. Its a historic gold mining town, now a quaint tourist destination. But it has some of the best offroad hardcore tracks I've seen or done.

Hers a few pics to wet the appetite :biggrin:

Fultons Creek Track was very steep with a loose gravelly surface & ruts, plus some awesome water crossings :biggrin:

Flats Track pushed both me & the Foz to the limits. Here the track runs out lol:

looks great there are some very tuff tracks in the area for sure. the last video really shows how the lack of gearing and suspension travel limit the subie though

Great
