EASTER WEEKEND 18th, 19th, 20th April, 2025
Just like the TV show but in your 4WD, you look for a clue at a GPS location. There will then be instructions to find your next destination. Over the 3 days you will experience Wimmera’s Desert Region of Victoria. This will be right up there with the greatest 4wd adventures you can have with family and friends.
As with all our events, it is not timed, so it will not affect your vehicle insurance. Road tyres are very suitable for this event as well.
You will be navigating, looking for clues, and following instructions along the way. There will be all sorts of twists and surprises, but unlike the TV show, nobody gets eliminated.
So long as it is reliable, virtually any 4WD & AWD with a good clearance will be up to this one. There should be no need for scratching or damage. This is a good fun, family event. There are no classes or limitations and all we need is for drivers to be licensed and vehicles to be registered.
We will be having one base bush camp so you don’t have to pack up each morning and take everything with you. No night activities other than social camp fires. We will have games & prizes for the kids. Even the kids get their own courses through the day.
This is a self-catering event, except for the presentation night dinner. We are based only 5 minutes from a main township, (Goroke) so all supplies and fuel are readily available.
What do I need? Firstly, it is one 4wd/Awd (with some clearance) vehicle per team, although there is nothing wrong in pairing up. All vehicles must have a GPS and basic recovery equipment, and of course, a great sense of adventure. Winches and diff locks will not be required. The event is based on easy, enjoyable four wheel driving. Greater detail will be available upon entry.
What is supplied? Other than an excellent time, all maps, notes, etc. are provided for each vehicle.
Presentation will be at the conclusion of the event with roast beef, pork, bbq sausages and an array of salads provided in your entry fee.
Where do we start? There will be one base bush camp; located at Goroke (near Horsham). Bring your caravans, camper trailers, etc. The camp site is 2WD all weather access.

What is Cliffhanger?
Cliffhanger is the big daddy of Australian 4x4 racing, featuring tough winch courses, long navigation stages and fast creek runs. We pride ourselves on being a family friendly event, with free entry for children, and a base camp accessible by most vehicles, including large trucks.
Steve and Rudi, along with their team of helpers, have been in the game for more than 20 years, and ensure you that this is an event you do not want to miss.
When is it?
