Four Wheel Driving

Four-wheel drive adventures in the Southern Downs will leave every enthusiast coming back for more. There are a number of private properties and National Parks that offer well maintained facilities.

Sundown National Park

You’ll find some of the region’s best four wheel driving in Sundown National Park, south west of Stanthorpe. Sundown is high, remote and rough and entices self-sufficient campers, experienced bushwalkers and keen 4WDers. Terrain is rocky and can be challenging, but spectacular views of the park’s ranges are the prize. Good clearance and low range are recommended.

Other 4WD tracks
  • The Springs 4×4 Adventure Park – Warwick
  • Janowen Hills 4×4 Park – Goomburra
  • Gordon Country – Goomburra
  • Glendon Camping Grounds – Thane (near Warwick)
  • Talgai, Gambubal, Goomburra and Leyburn State Forests
  • Emu Creek Road in the Emu Vale Valley, east of Warwick, is appropriately named after the creek, which the trek crosses several times, before concluding at the base of Mount Superbus.
