FR245 Honey Trap Loop

Trail Overview

The Honey Trap Loop Road offers a rugged off-road experience with challenging terrain and smoother sections. The trail consists of rocky inclines with loose rock and off-camber driving, requiring careful navigation. Due to the rough conditions, drivers should expect the possibility of pinstriping and tire damage, particularly on the sharp, rocky inclines and off-camber sections. Camping is not permitted along this loop, so visitors should plan accordingly. As the trail descends into the valley, the terrain transitions into a smoother, more manageable drive surrounded by expansive grasslands. In this lower section, the road becomes sandy, and dense vegetation increases the likelihood of pinstriping. Despite the challenges, the route provides an immersive experience through the refuge's diverse landscapes.
