Here are some ways that are between property boundaries, but  
definitely not roads (yes, I drove my 2-wheel drive Daihatsu Pyzar on  
these!):

See John Smith's post about public roads through private property. In  
addition, many national parks have public access roads that are  
unsealed, but maintained.

I think Liz's suggestion (avoiding obstacles = track, etc) makes  
sense, so I'll go with this, bearing in mind temporary obstacles like  
potholes that may be graded later.
