Hi Guys, I'm new here so firtsly thanks for having me. :)

I'm arranging a drive day from work and planning on taking 4 new 4x4's up to Toolangi / Murindindi to let some work colleagues have a go driving some tracks. I was wondering if anyone knows of some tame tracks that I can let some inexperienced people drive?

Cheers, Matt

G'day Matt. I'll put a bit of a list together this morning that might assist.

There are lots of Toolangi experts on here as well that hopefully see this thread and reply.

Also use this as a good reference map.

All the harder tracks are closed for winter except Rocky track, which is a great drive but not advisable for beginners especially if in stock cars and possibly Lyndells which is definatly one to stay away from.

Not all closed tracks are gated so check on Parks Vic site to get a list

When are you thinking of doing this drive day?

I live in Shepparton but used to live in Croydon and Toolangi was my favourite place to go. 

Would be happy to tag along if you wanted, and take you on some easy to medium tracks out there.

If you are thinking of going during the closed season Cheviots track is good, you should also be able to access Lukes Creek track as well.

Both good tracks that are a bit of a challenge but not what I would consider hard by any means.
