Nanga Heritage 4wd Circuit

Anyone fancy heading down to the Nanga Heritage 4wd Circuit south of Dwellingup?

Its a 52 km long track through some great country. It has been graded as an easy going track.

There is also Harvey Further south on the South Western Hwy. This area is more testing with a number of well chewed up tracks. This will need higher clearance and be more technical to negotiate.

Hi Rommel
The Nanga track is more about scenery not off-roading,its basically drive down very easy tracks.

Bit far for me but I wouldn't mind coming to something a bit closer, it would have to be on a Saturday all day or any other day after 12 as I have work.

Its not that far from Perth for a daytrip.
If you guys go down there make sure you take a few of the tracks down to the river for a peek.
Lots of secret camping/fishing holes down there
ENJOY
Andrew

I have done both the Nanga Heritige trail, and the Captain Fawcett trail in the last month. If you stick to the track, the only hard part is a fallen log (about 3-4 foot in diameter) that you have to drive over. If you duck down the tracks that lead off to the river, then the track becomes a little more intresting, and you may need to winch out of a couple as there's not enough room to tow/snatch if you become stuck.

I owe the WAAULROIANS a camping trip as I cancelled to one I planned in november, but my plan was to play on the nanga trail, then head into Lane Poole and camp the night. If thats a path you wanna go down, Drop us a line I'm happy to help.

Cheers Fellas

Was just looking in the map books for ideas. I did see the Prado boys did a trip through Harvey and the tracks looked very good I will post the link so you can see their photo's and if a Prado can do it we won't have any probs.....

Famous last words

pradopoint.com - Toyota Prado 4x4 Landcruiser Forum • View topic - WA - (renamed) Harvey 4WD Recovery Training expedition

Look all the way to the bottom of their thread, looks good

It looks like theres always interesting new tracks at harvey to check out. This trip was October so still had some h2o around, will probably be dry now, but worth a look.

cheers
Nick
