Release from 23.09.2026
Open exclusively to owners of the Husqvarna Norden 901, Norden 901 Expedition and 701 Enduro, the annual Trek once again delivered an authentic adventure riding experience, combining challenging terrain, breathtaking landscapes, and the camaraderie that has become synonymous with the Husqvarna adventure community.
Beginning and ending at Bendleby Ranges Station, riders traversed some of South Australia's most iconic outback terrain, with overnight stops at the renowned Prairie Hotel in Parachilna, the remote wilderness of Arkaroola, and scenic Rawnsley Park Station.
What made this year's event particularly memorable were the extraordinary conditions encountered throughout the Flinders Ranges. Following significant rainfall across the region, riders were treated to a landscape transformed, with flowing creek crossings, water in riverbeds, vibrant green grass and spectacular wildflower displays creating a riding environment that local residents described as the best seen in decades.
The result was a once-in-a-generation backdrop for an event designed to showcase the true capability of Husqvarna's adventure range in real-world conditions.

"Adventure riding is about much more than the destination," said Rosie Lalonde, Marketing Manager, Husqvarna Motorcycles Australia.
"The Husqvarna Trek is an opportunity for our riders to disconnect from the pressure of everyday life, challenge themselves, and experience Australia's incredible landscapes alongside like-minded adventurers. This year, the Flinders Ranges put on an extraordinary show. The conditions were so unique, and we feel truly lucky to have been able to explore the region at this time.”
“What made the experience even more special was the incredible route developed by our local route coordinators. Their intimate knowledge of the region allowed us to weave together exclusive access to private stations and remote tracks that few riders ever have the opportunity to experience. Combined with the remarkable conditions, it delivered a genuine once-in-a-lifetime adventure and showcased exactly what the Husqvarna Trek is all about.”
Supported by an experienced event crew, riders covered hundreds of kilometres across a diverse range of terrain, highlighting the versatility and capability of both the Norden 901 and 701 Enduro in the environments for which they were designed.
Beyond the riding itself, the Trek continues to foster a strong sense of community amongst Husqvarna owners, bringing together riders from across Australia who share a passion for exploration, adventure, and the freedom of life on two wheels.
This year's event also carried a deeper purpose, with participants proudly supporting Variety - The Children's Charity of South Australia, a cause close to the heart of our host venue, Bendleby Ranges Station. Through the generosity of riders, partners and supporters, over $27,000 was raised during the event, making a meaningful contribution to children and families in need.
As the dust settles on another successful edition of the Husqvarna Trek, the memories created across six days in one of Australia's most remarkable landscapes will remain long after the final kilometres have been ridden.
The 2026 Husqvarna Trek once again reinforced what adventure means to Husqvarna riders: pushing beyond the horizon, embracing the unexpected, and sharing unforgettable experiences with a community united by a passion for exploration.
