Fun day out at Tallarook EASY / MEDIUM

Tallarook state forest, VIC
See more trips
Hi guy I have never planned a trip before and I really want to go out bush this weekend and get my car muddy. I went on a day trip to Tallarook a few weeks ago and had a ball. There will be some tracks that may be a bit challenging. Just a reminder to pack some refreshments for the day as we will find a nice place to stop and have something to eat and a bit of a chit chat to see how everyone is going. If you know of any good fun tracks can you please comment on the trip and let me know. As I have no idea where my map of Tallarook has gone. So I'll be buying a new one today. Any questions fill free to call or text me 0437007363.

The rain will definitely make it interesting. The Tehans tracks are easy in the dry and great fun, but be careful in the wet. Tehans 2 and 3 are the easiest, 4, 5 and 6 - especially 5 near the top - can throw a challenge out when wet even for fairly capable 4wds.

Magazine and Gravel Pit are good. Rocky and Mountain tracks are a good challenge for a stock vehicle.

What tracks should we fully avoid? And do you Know if there are any river crossings.

Stay away from Phone, Steep, Bills, Willies and an unnamed track that veers off Tehans 2.

Here's a download of the Tallarook Rootops map for you.
