4WD Training Facility

As a further extension to the driver education facilities available at Sandown, a brand new 4WD/AWD training facility has been constructed. 

This new facility will includes a wide range of features such as log & rock crossings, water hole, slopes, deep sand pit and a gravel roadway, all designed in conjunction with Murcotts for the purposes of driver education for private and corporate clients who own or operate SUV or 4WD vehicles.

Construction is complete, with pilot courses held in June 2007. The facility has been designed with most features having both 'mild' and 'more severe' terrain, thus catering for all vehicles and driver ability levels.

Located within 25 mins of the CBD, this facility avoids clients having to drive hours out of Melbourne to learn 4WD vehicle handling skills in the forest regions.

Here are some photos of the key features:

   
Main 3 metre high slope              Deep Sand Pit


   
Dianglitis slopes                         Gravel Road (150m by 7m)

  
Log & Rock Crossings                  Water Hole

Located only 25mins from the CBD, the facility is perfectly located so clients avoid travelling hours out of Melbourne to learn the skills in the forest areas.
