Dromana - Arthur's seat - Red Hill Touge Route with maps and pictures













I only drive at this point, when I had extra petrol to spare. This route is basically about 20km away from Frankston City. Between points A and B is the famous 5 hairpins, similar to Mt. Akina's route. Normally if I would want to learn how to drive up and down fast the hairpins, I would only go between point A and point B.

The second longest route would be between Point A, B, C and G. I would normally go on this stretch, should I want to drive a slightly longer route, but not too long and with a medium difficulty challenge.

The longest route and the tougest would be between Point A, B, C, D, E, F and G. Between point D to F, are poorly litted road with a large dense forest. When I mean forest, it is similar to huge oak tree forests that doesn't allow much moonlight to penetrate through. The level of light is about the same on Genting Sempah road at night, although its much safer, wider and lack of incoming cars.














Picture above shows Arthur's seat at the background and Dromana town in the foreground.














I was chasing a Nissan Fairlady 300ZX Z32 uphill on point A, on Arthur's seat 1st hairpin. Due to my weight advantage, I was able to come close to the 300ZX.
