The Murray Sunset National Park has many a great 4WD track to offer. The Border 4WD track runs mostly right along the Victorian and South Australian Border. The desert region is a great destination for 4WD enthusiasts and best visited in autumn and spring to avoid the soaring heat of the summer. Winter can get a bit cool but the 4WD conditions should be fine unless rain has set on the region. To get to the 4WD region turn off the Mallee Highway between Murrayville and Pinnaroo.

As usual, lower your tyre pressure when 4W driving on sand - and there is plenty of sand on the Border Track. The track can be a bit tricky, sandy areas interrupted by clay soils - particularly if the weather gets wet. In places the track has become a bit overgrown, make sure you stay oriented and able to backtrack if necessary. Bring your recovery gear and if you can, don't 4WD alone.

Bring your own supplies, particularly water as there is none available. And don't forget to bring your fishing gear. Take a break from your 4WD adventure to sit on the famous Murray River and wet a line. At the Northern End of the track, at Border Cliffs you can rent a houseboat and take off on the Murray for another adventure. There is no accommodation or supplies along the Border Track.
