These roads are graveled, well maintained, clearly marked and are suitable for most vehicles. We do not suggest motorcycles, or ultra low clearance sports cars.  Four-wheel drive is not necessary. You can expect there to be some wash boarding on the roads and depending on the weather, potential areas with shallow water. After your trip to Backland your car will likely be dusty (or muddy if it has rained). There is one designated parking spot per tent located adjacent to your tent. Additional parking is available by the lobby.
