Tracks
We have a wide variety of (mostly) clay tracks with varying levels of difficulty and steepness. There is also a "rock garden" for specialised vehicles and muddy ponds for those who are happy to get very dirty. Drivers must respect the grass areas by not driving in a careless manner that causes damage.
Most tracks are inaccessible during and after heavy rain.

Car park camp
This is a large flat grassy paddock easily accessed by any road vehicle using graveled farm tracks. There are flush toilets and changing rooms, no electricity and no drinking water. Access to shower facilities with hot water can be organised for a small extra fee.
