Hi everyone,
I am planning a trip to the bridle track next month. I went there a couple of years ago and I know that the track has been closed at Monaghan's Bluff.
We want to take an alternative route to the northern section of the bridle track. There's a track called Stuarts Access going off the Box Ridge Road and according to my map, it looks like it's leading to the bridle track. There are some gates, but I was hoping that you can open those and drive that road (just as the Box Hill Road)
Does anyone know more about this track or any other way to get to the northern section of the bridle track (so not via the Root Hog Fire track or Hill End)

Thanks in advance
Noel

Just back from a brilliant trip to the bridle track.
Tried the Stuarts Access Road but we had to turn around after 500m as it was leading to a private property. So no luck there.

Thats a pity. Did you find a way through anywhere?
Where'd you decide to camp?

We camped at two different spots on the track. I've marked them on the map attached. The two grey pins are exits of the tracks that I was hoping to get to from Box Ridge Road. There are no gates from as far as I could see. There must be an alternative route.
I had to stop looking for tracks as I felt the other boys had enough of driving around and wanted to set up camp.
