The Best Australian Road Trips

From Sydney to Cairns along the East Coast, to Darwin to Adelaide right through the centre, you can discover the heart of Australia on an epic drive. One of the greatest countries to take to the open road, here are the most amazing Australian road trips you can embark on.

Sydney to Cairns

Lush national parks leading into dense rainforest, and coastline views for nearly 3000km, you can take part in water and land sports side-by-side, camp by the many sandy beaches, and visit some of the most iconic bays, towns and cities of Australia.

 Camp by the beach in Hat Head National Park

 Coffs Harbour is one of the finest holiday destinations in New South Wales

 Historically renowned for its hippie spirit, Byron Bay is still gloriously charming

 Queensland’s theme park capital, the Gold Coast is also home to Surfers Paradise

 Watch the Humpback Whales migrate along Hervey Bay

 The gateway to the Great Barrier Reef, Cairns is sandwiched between blue ocean and green rainforest

Darwin to Adelaide

From the top end right the way down to the idyllic south, a journey from the tropical city of Darwin to the pretty city of Adelaide cuts right through the famous Outback, where you can take in the striking red desert.

Darwin is a relaxed city with year-long good weather

 Thick vegetation covers rugged cliff tops for great adventure in Kakadu

 The icon of the Outback, you can walk, ride a quad bike or cycle around Uluru
