Hey does anyone here know of any places to 4WD close to Perth? i was looking for somewhere with easy access to go after work while we still have daylight saving... I have heard there is some tracks near Banksia Grove, but have no idea where.

Banksia Grove tracks are pretty basic, but down in Pipidinny theres some awesome 4WDing.

Where you live mate?

I will come out with ya

I live in Highgate - right close to the CBD

is pipindiny all sand?, I still have been meaning to do the powerline track, but havent had a chance yet.

Yeh Pipidinny is all sand in dunes or beach. I havent done the power tracks either, looks like a good track, however i'm a bit worried about ground clearance on the FL2. Theres some big holes there!

Strange to hear you're looking for 4WD areas in Aus. Most of the country is 4WD territory! Now Belgium, that's another question. Though we do have one or two old quarries set up for it.

By the way, I lived a few years in Oman in the Middle East. The sand duning and wadi-bashing were superb. I had a 4 litre Jeep Wrangler then. I used to go on the dunes after work.

If anyone's got some good tips for 4WD-ing in Belgium (legally), that would be welcome.

Hey Dorko have you ever been upto the Lancelin sand dunes? if so, whats it like?

Not yet, looking at doing it Labour day long weekend.

Looks fun, been Quad biking there a couple of times, just need to let down your tires.
