Best Off roading area in New Zealand

G	Glen Winter on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Pretty easy 4wd track. But disappointing the amount of stupid damage by people making their own tracks. This is how places like this get closed.
B	Bradley l1234567 on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Was good, the enormous downhill with the big rut steps was interesting. Would highly recommend a local to help navigating. Some need a winch, some don't, just depends on alot.
J	John Old Fav on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great track tho extreme 4WD in some places Doc 10 man hut in great condition..... Sign everywhere though well hunted out
A	Aidan Martel on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Awesome as driving, 4x4 pajero stock as a rock made it thru nicely couple great areas to stop and chill and stunning views . Fun play area too
P	Paul Montague on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We mountain biked this yesterday (open to 4x4s through the summer) and added it to Google Maps, Museum, was the nearest place category GMaps offered. As Doc says this is remote ride so be prepared with ideally a personal locator beacon. We had the NZ Maps App with the cycle maps layer for the area down loaded so could track our location via GPS with no cell service. There are a few river crossings, recent wet weather will make the ride tricky they're cold! Halfway in (20km or so) the county opens out into the stunning Whanganui river valley. There is a fair amount of river Boulder metal used throughout the track so you'll be dodging boulders in your sleep after this.
C	Chris Goh on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Must visit tracks for those who are into 4x4 adventure. Keep to the main track and refrain from going into side tracks. Low range 4WD all good to tackle the tracks during summer dry season. Track opened in summer to 4x4 vehicles. Please check before you go.
A	Aidan Hamilton on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This place is awesome. Family and I took some dirt bikes in for about 3 hours. It's got everything. Scenic overlooks, water crossings, mud, rock, steep inclines and declines, and more. Plenty of side trails and places to explore too. Trail is wide enough for all but the largest of off-road vehicles but I wouldn't take a fancy new Ute in there. Terrain is pretty rough in spots and traffic goes both ways!
P	Penelope B on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Awesome shared track for 4WD and mountain bike, mostly downhill with some fun descents and river crossings. There are several short up hills and some steady climbs/deep rocks but all easy to walk if you dont want to ride.Track in excellent condition but the blackberries are starting to stretch out. Not a lot of coverage so check conditions and be safe, easy route to follow.
