Folks,

We are looking to join a 4WD club in the Sydney area, preferably with meetings on the northern side.

Our interest is primarily outback touring during school holiday periods and family oriented trips. Extensive driver training, competition and difficult tracks are not our interest.

I know there are a few clubs in the area, but having been a member of many clubs of various kinds over the years, you never really know the real interests of those in them until you have been around a while, so I'm hoping some responses may short circuit that process.

Thanks in advance.

The Hornsby - Kuringai 4wd club meets at Hornsby, a family orientated club, but has a good mix of youngsters, families and grey nomads.
While we do have a basic driver training course which we encourage new members to attend especially if they have no 4wd experience. As we are a small club it is only run a couple of times a year. There is a huge range of vehicles from Subaru's to F250's and even a Canter 4wd etc.
Whilst some of the younger ones like the hard trips the bulk are family weekends and one dayers and there are usually 2-3 outback/ longer trips every year depending on members. Always someone doing something.
