Top 5 Australian Road Trips
"Top 5 Australian Road Trips" The information first appeared in http://www.ozehols.com.au/blog/australia/top-5-australian-road-trips/
There is nothing in this life quite as exciting or fulfilling as taking a road-trip along some of Australia’s most scenic routes.
Whether you are a homegrown Aussie or from another country, the opportunity to explore the beautiful Australian landscape away from reality for a few days or even weeks, is difficult to resist. Whether you are a city-goer looking for a new adventure or a backpacker taking a once in a lifetime vacation, everyone comes to the same conclusion; Australia is a truly magical and vast place with more adventures to be had than you could dream of.
As with most things, planning is essential and there are some important factors to consider. For example, how long do you want the trip to last, what will you be traveling in and do you have the right insurance cover. It’s a great idea to shop around for the best deal before you go, so check out some comprehensive car insurance comparison sites before the trip and find the best cover that offers you peace of mind throughout the vacation.
You’ll obviously also need to decide where you want to go. It goes without saying that the longer the trip the more ground you’ll be able to cover. Be realistic with your estimations and don’t try to cram too much in. You don’t want to come back more stressed and tired than when you left!
Here are 5 of the best Australian road trips for you to start planning now:
1. Gibb River Road, Kimberley, WA
The Gibb River Road is a former cattle route that stretches almost 660 kilometers between the town of Derby in Western Australia to the Kununurra and Wyndham junction of The Great North Highway.
The majority of the road surface is made of dirt and gravel so a good sturdy car or 4WD will be essential. Road closures are common during wet season (November to April) because of extreme flooding, which means that travel can be severely restricted during these months. Allow time for this if necessary.
The ‘Gibb’ offers one of the last few true outback adventures and is considered one of the worlds most iconic outback drives. It features spectacular scenery along with many gorges, waterfalls and rivers. Allow yourself plenty of time to swim, explore and hike, although precaution should always be taken, dangerous wildlife such as crocodiles are common in the area.
2. Snowy Mountain Drive, NSW
Snowy Mountain drive may be challenging to reach, but I promise you it will be well worth it when you get there. Situated three hours drive from Canberra, the alpine region stretches from the ACT to New South Wales and into Victoria.
The region is alive with seasonal activities including skiing in the winter and fishing in the clear alpine streams during the summer. If planning to holiday in the area, check out holiday accommodation in Snowy Mountains
3. The Huon Trail, Tasmania
Discover a beautiful patchwork of fishing, farming and forestry activities by travelling to the region situated just south of Hobart, Tasmania.
It takes approximately four days to fully explore the area and is the perfect trip for anyone that wants to escape the hustle and bustle of the daily grind and immerse themselves in the Tasmania of yesteryear.
4. Hinterland Drive, Queensland
The Gold Coast, Hinterland offers some of the best scenic drives in the country. You’ll enjoy unparalleled views, wineries and tranquil lakes. The Hinterland Drive offers a wonderful lush green contrast to the Surfers Paradise found further along the Gold Coast.
5. The Fleurieu Peninsula, Southern Australia
The Fleurieu Peninsula is located just South of Adelaide in South Australia, and was named after the French explorer Charles Pierre Claret de Fleurieu in 1802.
The region is famous for its striking vistas and breathtaking geological formations. It is also known for its world-class food, good wine and easy living. What’s not to love? You could spend a few days exploring the area by booking one of the accommodation in Fleurieu Peninsula
