Information

The Balfour Track is one of the most difficult 4WD tracks in Australia. It is located inside the vast Arthur-Pieman Conservation Area. Taking this track will lead you to the town of Arthur River which is locally known as “The Edge of the World”. Winches & snorkels are required and at times the mudholes in the track are windscreen-deep.
