Safety alerts: 4WD access in Brindabella National Park
Trails in Brindabella National Park can be extremely challenging in all weather conditions. Steep gradients, loose surfaces, and limited traction make access difficult in both wet and dry conditions.
Caution is advised if you are travelling to the following areas:
- McIntyres Campground
- Lowells Flat Campground
- Flea Creek Campground and Picnic area.
Access to both McIntyres and Lowells Flat Campground, requires a high-clearance 4WD vehicle with low-range capability, off-road tyres and a driver with 4WD experience.
There is very limited to no mobile phone reception in these areas to call for assistance. Recovery, if required, will be difficult and costly.
Trail closures may occur at short notice. Always check the NPWS website for updates before travelling.
Plan ahead and drive safely.

Safety alerts: Flea Creek Access
Access to Flea Creek is restricted to capable 4WD vehicles only.
The approach via Gentle Annie Trail is very steep - dusty when dry, and muddy when wet, which significantly reduces traction.
While many vehicles can descend this trail, without a properly equipped 4WD you will not be able to climb back out.
- Conditions worsen in both dry and wet weather, creating limited grip for tires and increasing the risk of becoming stranded.
- There is no mobile phone reception in the area.
- If you become stuck, arranging recovery will be difficult and costly.
Ensure your vehicle is a high-clearance 4WD with low-range capability before attempting this route. Plan ahead and avoid unnecessary risk.
Do not attempt access in 2WD or AWD vehicles.
