Cobaw Rock Crawling – Sat 28th Nov 2026


Join Angelo and Club 4×4 for a spring day trip heading out to Cobaw State Forest, near Lancefield.

It’s only an hour or so from home. This trip is not for the faint of heart. There are very technical sections, deep ruts and plenty of rock climbing to be had. It will require not only a great deal of concentration, but also a well set up vehicle and knowledge on how to handle these types of tracks.

Note: If coming on this Trip please Vote early in the Victorian State Election

Location and/or Description of Trip (Itinerary):

Join Angelo and Club 4×4 for a spring day trip heading out to Cobaw State Forest, near Lancefield.
It’s only an hour or so from home. This trip is not for the faint of heart. There are very technical sections, deep ruts and plenty of rock climbing to be had. It will require not only a great deal of concentration, but also a well set up vehicle and knowledge on how to handle these types of tracks.
I ran this trip back in 2023 and 2024 and we drove on Mansfield, Muirs, Pinnacle, Link Track and Soil Pit Tracks. We pretty much had to turn back on some the tracks, but it was a lot of fun. We will explore these tracks again and see if we can get through.
If the tracks have been graded and easier than expected I will run the trip again next year and lower the difficulty rating.

Start Location:Lancefield bakery
Finish Location:Croziers road
Brief directions to meeting point:

We will meet outside the Lancefield bakery where we can get a bite to eat and a coffee.
