USING THIS GUIDE P
lanning a touring holiday in this great country of ours can be incredibly exciting, and sometimes really frustrating.
The excitement, of course, stems from that very first decision you make – let’s go on a camping or caravanning trip! The excitement builds as you pick a general area, but then it fades a bit as you get into the sometimes frustrating nitty gritty of organising the whole thing. What route should you take? Should you pre-book accommodation? What’s the weather like at this time of the year? Take a tent? Tow a van? What about a boat? The questions keep on piling up, and sometimes it’s a drama trying to find the answers to them all before you head off. This guide is designed to remove many of those frustrations and hassles by concentrating a host of valuable touring information in an easy-to-use format.
STATE BY STATE To help with your planning, we’ve laid out a lot of information state by state. Within these state guides you’ll find details on campsites, van parks and national parks throughout the state. We’ve also included some general information and a few hot spots within each state that have proved to be favourites with travellers over the years. We have included maps within the state sections to help you find your way around and to assist in planning trip times and so on.
GENERAL HINTS AND TIPS While the when and where of a touring holiday can be sorted out with maps, there
06
Go Caravan and Camping Guide
are many other factors that should be considered. To help you with this side of your trip planning we’ve included plenty of information in a number of sections. Our “Planning Your Trip” section will take you through the basics and includes all the factors you’ll need to know about before you head off. Similarly, our “Touring Tips” section covers those ‘little things’ that are easily forgotten, yet can make a journey so much easier. Within this section we’ve also included some basic ‘check lists’ so that you can cover all the bases before you set off. If you’re towing a van for the first time or are unfamiliar with long distance road travel, our safety hints in “On The Road” will prove a handy reference, and may take some of the worry out of your journey.
SPECIFIC LOCATIONS If you are searching for information on a specific location, such as a van park, camping ground or national park, there is an extensive index of these sites in the back of this guide. In addition, each state guide has an easy reference listing of parks and features within that state.
A HANDY REFERENCE It’s a good idea to keep this guide in your vehicle. It will prove to be a handy reference no matter where you travel around Australia.

TASTING THE GOOD LIFE T
he traveller’s guide to wine tasting and wineries.
Cellar doors
My, how things change over the years. Only 40-odd years ago decent wines were mostly the preserve of the more well-off folks in society. Cellar doors open to the general public were largely confined to a few wine making regions, and many of these operated on the bus tour principle where hordes of young clowns downed cheap plonk, blackberry nip and so on, and headed home the worse for wear. (Oops, I remember doing that in the Sixties.) Since then the growth in the wine industry, and the acceptance and availability of decent wines, has been remarkable. For many RV tourers, tasting wines has become part of their travelling lifestyle. No wonder, really. Where would happy hour be without a nice drop of wine? These days wineries are found along every major travel route and in pretty much every region around Australia. Basically, if they can grow wine grapes in a region, you’ll find a winery somewhere within it. And they are not all recent additions. There are some wineries that trace their roots back to the very beginnings of their region.
08
However, not all wineries sell to the public. The wineries you should look for have a ‘cellar door’ sales and tasting centre, where you can try before you buy.
Go Caravan and Camping Guide
Some small vineyards only sell at cellar doors, so you are not going to find their wines in the big supermarket chains and so on. This is not because they aren’t good enough. Some of the hooch the big chains sell is fit for making sauces and very little else. The real fun part about exploring the out of the way cellar doors is that often you’ll find some real gems. Australian winemakers produce some delightful wines and you never know where you’ll pick one up. As is usual for RV tourers, a good place to start is the tourist centre. Here you’ll pick up some up to date information on the location of cellar doors within a region, and their opening hours.
Tasting Now this is where some folks get a bit shy. You might feel a little daunted standing next to someone you think is a real wine connoisseur, watching him swirl the glass, sniff away and then taste the drop. All he’s doing is letting his senses tell him what the wine is like – sight, smell and taste. He’s swirling the glass around to see that the wine’s clear and admiring its colour. For example, a pinot noir will be
2 pale and rosy, while a cabernet sauvignon will be deep, rich purple/red. He’s sniffing the wine to assess what is known as its ‘nose’, determining the fruity characters and other aromas of the wine. Finally, he’s taking a small sip, swirling it around in his mouth to assess the range and character of the flavours in that particular wine. Wines have a complex range of flavours, such as sweetness, acidity, tannins, dryness and oak from the barrels. If you really get into your wines you may want to analyse your sight, smell and taste sensations in detail, but if you’re a pretty novice taster like me you’ll disregard the technical aspects and all the flowery descriptives, and follow your own preferences. Basically, if it tastes good to you, it’s a good wine. After all, the bottom line is, wine is made to be enjoyed.
Tasting notes Most good cellar doors will have tasting notes on the wines they have available. These are a good guide and will help you with your tasting. They cover such subjects as the grape varieties, the vintage, the various characteristics and the cellaring life should you wish to keep some for a special occasion.
Tasting order Start with whites, then reds, usually the lighter reds, then the heavier varieties. For example try the pinot noir, then merlot, then shiraz, then cabernet sauvignon. Most cellar

hour be without
a nice drop of
4 doors will have their varieties lined up in that order, white to red, along with their tasting notes.
Bikkies Some cellar doors provide dry crackers at their tastings. A quick munch between wines helps to cleanse the mouth and allows for better tasting.
Water Like the bikkies, a mouthful of water between tastings cleanses the mouth and allows for better tasting.
Rinse glass Most cellar doors will give you one glass for your tasting, so a quick sluice out with water will clean the glass and give you a cleaner taste of the next wine.
Spit or swallow? After tasting the wine, do you spit it out or swallow it? Some might think it’s gross spitting it out, but there’s a good reason, of course. If you’re driving, definitely spit it out. Even a small taste of half a dozen varieties at four or five wineries will put you over the driving limit. Even if you’re not driving, if you keep on soaking up all that wine, by the last couple of cellar doors it’ll all taste the same if you’re half stonkered.
As for spitting, cellar doors all have containers available. Some have barrels, others ornate brass urns, others plastic buckets (mind you, plastic buckets might suggest their wines aren’t exactly classy).

Tasting fees This tends to get my goat a bit. Some cellar doors charge a fee, perhaps five bucks, for the privilege of tasting their wines. Thankfully they are not common, and I reckon this is an indication that their wines are not up to snuff. They probably sell few at their cellar door, and they are simply making their money by charging tasters. My approach to these places is simple. If there’s a sign advising a charge for tasting, I go do my tasting someplace else. Many wineries are enhancing their attraction to RV tourers by the addition of restaurants, cafés and entertainment areas. Some have guided tours of their facilities, and others, particularly the older wineries, have mini-museums on their premises. Australia’s many wineries really do produce some wonderful wines. Travelling the country and tasting some of them just adds to the enjoyment of RV touring.
In addition to these regions, there are small vineyards in every state in most areas.

AOFHARBOUR SECRETS T
asmania’s Macquarie Harbour is a vast waterway blessed with wonderful scenery, yet concealing a dark history.
Tasmania is a wonderful state. The entire island is packed with fascinating history and it’s a great place for travellers to spend some time. But nowhere in Tassie is quite like Macquarie Harbour, on the west coast. On the northern edge of the immense wilderness area of Tasmania’s south west, Macquarie Harbour is one of the most spectacular and fascinating areas in Australia. For travellers it’s accessible from one point only, the village of Strahan, on its northern shore. Strahan is pretty much a tourist town, pure and simple. It’s the gateway to the harbour, the convict settlement of Sarah Island, the Gordon River and it’s the railhead for the West Coast Wilderness Railway. Strahan is easily accessed by tourers leaving the ferry port of Devonport via Burnie and down through the west coast forests, or across from Hobart via Queenstown. There are a number of ways to explore Macquarie Harbour, but by far the best is a cruise on the Lady Jane Franklin. The cruise will take you out to Hells Gate, the impossibly narrow entrance to the vast

Go Caravan and Camping Guide
harbour, then past the salmon farms right up the harbour into the Gordon River itself, where you can take a stroll through the forest, then on the return journey you can enjoy a guided tour of the Sarah Island complex. Hells Gate, the entrance to the harbour, is a truly remarkable, narrow, rock-edged passage flanked by small lighthouses. It’s said that the tide runs at 8 or 9 knots through here at its peak. As you pass through the entrance in the big cruising cat, imagine how tricky it must have been for those earlier navigators who attempted entry to the harbour under sail. As you reach Cape Sorell on the southern shore, the cruise boat reacts to the long swells rolling in from the south west. Beyond the cape to the south is Antarctica. Returning into the enclosed waters of the harbour, you’ll see rows of floating cages, where salmon fatten up for the gourmet tables of the world. As you continue up the harbour the shorelines become crowded with rising hills and forests. It was these forests which drew the attention of the early explorers, with the fabled huon pine there for the taking. As you make the entry into the Gordon River the forests crowding the shoreline are much easier to see – huon pine, celery top pine and leatherwood form a dense wall right down to the water’s edge. These cool temperate forests are damp, dense and all but impenetrable, but spectacularly beautiful from the comfortable deck of a cruise boat.
At one point the boat calls in to a landing and passengers are invited to take a walk through this amazing forest. Once in under the canopy you can understand how hard this country is to travel through, yet another reason for placing a penal colony in the harbour. And then there’s Sarah Island, where you can wander around the ruins and imagine just how bleak were the lives of the convicts imprisoned here. And I suspect the same applied to those who guarded them.
Sarah Island Before Port Arthur, there was Sarah Island, a scrap of green-clad rock huddled in the upper reaches of Macquarie Harbour. For the Old Dart’s gaolers it was a bleak and desperate place in one of the most remote areas on the planet, ideal in fact for a penal colony. After all, even if the convicts did escape the island, where would they go? The penal colony was established in 1822 and only operated for 11 years before it was abandoned and the remaining prisoners transferred to Port Arthur near Hobart. The prisoners at Sarah Island were expected to work for their supper. The surrounding shoreline of the harbour was clad in forests of huon pine, much sought after for shipbuilding due to its resistance to rot. A thriving ship building industry grew on Sarah Island. Over 120 vessels, from

is packed with fascinating history and it’s a place for travellers.
5 dinghies to three masted barques, were built here during its period of operation. You can still see the remains of the slipways, massive logs, at the water’s edge today. Scattered around the island are the remains of the convict buildings, the bricks often marked by the thumbprint of the convicts who made them. The tour guides here are very good and bring the experiences of the past right into the present. If you pick a bleak day to visit, and most days are bleak in this part of the world, you can imagine what it would have been like for the convicts working in this cold, wet, remote place. It must have seemed like Hell on Earth. And even though they were in one of the most remote places on earth, some were driven to escape. Not many escapees survived. Many were recaptured, but most perished in the dense, unforgiving forests. One particularly grizzly character, Alexander Pearce, made a habit of eating his fellow escapees. He made two escape attempts, both involving cannibalism. After his first escapade he was returned to Sarah Island, but after his recapture on his second attempt he was found guilty of cannibalism and executed in Hobart in 1824. Another group managed to take control of a brig they’d helped build, the Frederick, and sailed her out through Hells Gate, south of New Zealand and on to Chile. While some managed to blend into the Chilean population, others were eventually recaptured and sentenced to life on Norfolk Island.

Sarah Island remains to this day a remote and forbidding place, yet one with a fascinating history. The village of Strahan is also the coastal railhead of the West Coast Wilderness Railway, running between Strahan and Queenstown. This remarkable railway takes you through the spectacular forests between the two towns, across wonderful bridges and alongside the unfortunately dead but none-the-less pretty King River, which flows into Macquarie Harbour. Macquarie Harbour is truly one of the remarkable places of Australia. By today’s standards it remains pretty remote, and is steeped in our early colonial history. If you’re touring Tassie, the trip to Strahan and Macquarie Harbour is well worth it.

CRUISING AROUND CAIRNS W
hen many Aussies think of the tropics we tend to think of islands like Fiji, but in Australia we have vast areas of tropics accessible to the traveller. And nowhere is more accessible, nor has more interesting things to see and do, than the region around Cairns in North Queensland.
Cairns is a heck of a big city, and as you arrive on your winter migration you’ll see it’s just that – a sprawling, busy place. Naturally, most of the tourist attention in Cairns centres on the CBD and the adjacent shoreline along the Esplanade. In the city itself you’ll find a hustling, bustling, vibrant atmosphere. People are everywhere. Here you’ll find cafés, restaurants, the casino, good pubs and loads of entertainment, as well as all the shopping locations you’ll need. Down by the Esplanade it’s even busier. Sidewalk cafés are everywhere, the parks and pool area are crowded with sunlovers and across the way on Trinity Inlet the marina and shops beckon. But the region all around Cairns is also loaded with fascinating things to see and do. To the south, Innisfail is the centre of the region’s cane growing industry and is a very attractive town with all the facilities a
014
Go Caravan and Camping Guide
traveller could need. The Johnstone River flows through town and is flanked by attractive gardens and pathways. Large boats crowd the small marina, while yachts swing on their moorings further out. Further south, through the very cute village of South Johnstone along the Innisfail-Japoon Road, you’ll find Paronella Park. Out front you’ll find a big café and kiosk where you can learn the whole story of Jose Paronella’s dream home. It’s a fascinating yarn, and Paronella Park is a fascinating place to visit. As you wander around the park you’ll marvel at just how much work (and concrete) went into creating Jose’s dream. Paths, picnic areas, bath houses, change rooms, ballrooms, fountains – this place is immense. The gardens are just amazing, lush and green, with towering trees and vast groves of palms. Heading away from the cane country up the Palmerston Highway you’ll approach Atherton and the Tablelands. The rugged terrain and high rainfall lends itself to some gorgeous waterfalls. Along this route you can visit Ellinjaa Falls, Zillie Falls and the famous Millaa Millaa Falls. As you drive up onto the Atherton Tablelands the cane gives way to tea and coffee plantations, with extensive vistas of cleared, rolling countryside. It’s a very pretty area. The Atherton Tablelands is a kind of border region between the wet tropics to the east and the tropical savannah to the
west. It’s a real link between the coast and the outback. Atherton is a major regional centre on the Tablelands. It’s quite a busy town with plenty of shops and eateries, and has a nice country feel to it. It’s a good town to base yourself in while you explore the surrounding Tablelands, and there’s plenty to see in town, too. From Atherton we headed for Mareeba, but we decided to take the long, scenic way, through Danbulla State Forest and around Lake Tinaroo. Along the forest road you’ll see glimpses of the vast Lake Tinaroo through the trees. Downfall Creek camping area is a beaut if you fancy stopping a while for a fish. You’ll need to check with the national parks mob and pre-book a site, but this is a really good little campsite. Many of the sites have their own fireplace and picnic table. A gravel boat ramp will let you get amongst the fish (hopefully). Platypus Creek is another Tinaroo campsite, though this one is more suited to small tent camping. The dam that holds back the waters of Lake Tinaroo was built across the Barron River in 1959. It’s a water supply and irrigation dam and is a major centre for water based recreational activities. Fishing, swimming, skiing and sailing are all popular here. From Tinaroo it’s only a short drive to the Tablelands town of Mareeba. Mareeba is the ‘other’ large town on the Tablelands and was once the centre of the

2 tobacco growing industry in Australia. The district around Mareeba is a food bowl, with a vast array of tropical fruits, nuts, sugar, tea and coffee under cultivation. If you really want to get a good look at Mareeba and the surrounding countryside, take a hot air balloon ride. There are a couple of balloon flight operators in Mareeba. We flew with the crew from Hot Air, which is an appropriate name. These folks were really very good, and our pilot, Jay Schesser, was excellent. From Mareeba we rolled down off the Atherton Tablelands, through some winding roads and spectacular country onto the coastal plain. We were heading into the heart of the ‘wet tropics’ region around the Daintree. Passing north through Mossman, we turned off towards Cape Tribulation, and the ferry across the Daintree River. The area around Cape Tribulation is typical of the coastline in these parts. Shallow sandy beaches are shaded by rainforest vegetation and the occasional coconut palm. Inland the hills rear up, clad in magnificent rainforest. From the relative wilderness of Cape Trib and the Daintree, and the more rural feel of Mossman, we rolled into a culture shock at Port Douglas. If ever there was a town built to cater for tourists of all pocket depths, Port Douglas is it. Luxury resorts, retreats and spas are shoulder to shoulder, more or less dominating the van parks and backpacker

3 hostels. The main street is extremely busy and loaded with shops, bars, boutiques and cafés. Even the old pub has been trendified. Still, it’s a popular place, with coconut tree shaded beaches and a big marina. From here you can take a cruise out to the reef. By now we were beginning to reach what are known as the ‘northern suburbs’ of Cairns. Palm Cove is another of those ‘made for tourists’ centres, with resorts and retreats all along the beachfront. Having said that, it’s a very pretty beach – one of those classic tropical beaches. If you’re into sand, sea and swaying palms, this is a top spot. For a dose of culture of a completely different kind, take a drive up into the hills to the famous village of Kuranda. Kuranda no doubt started life as one of those ‘alternative lifestyle’ locations, a northern Nimbin, if you like. It is a spectacular village, with rows of cafés, shops and of course the famous markets, all in a lush tropical setting. The Kuranda Scenic Railway is another of those very famous Cairns attractions and is well worth a ride. There is so much to do in Cairns and the surrounding region that we’ve only just scratched the surface on this trip. But for we southern travellers, keep the weather in mind. While the folks at home shiver in the depths of winter, in and around Cairns it’s T-shirt time. And that’s T for tropical. That alone is a good enough reason to tour the tropics, isn’t it?

THE
YORKE PENINSULA
S
outh Australia’s Yorke Peninsula is an ideal touring destination.
The Adelaidians know about it, but the Yorke Peninsula seems to be off the radar of many travellers from other states. I guess that’s because Adelaide is a jump-off point for long range touring trips. From Adelaide it’s only about 300km to Port Augusta, which is the departure point for those heading west across the Nullarbor, or north up the Stuart to Alice and beyond. The Yorke Peninsula is, however, a really worthwhile addition to your long trip, if for no other reason than the pasties are really good. Pasties? What? Take a 500km detour for a flamin’ pastry? Yep. Trust me. And it’s not only the Cornish pasties that are good. So what and where is the Yorke Peninsula? It’s a boot-shaped peninsula positioned between the Spencer Gulf and Gulf St Vincent, due west of Adelaide. Incidentally, why is it Gulf St Vincent and Spencer Gulf – gulf before and gulf after? Blame Matthew Flinders. He named them thus, and the Yorke Peninsula as well, back in 1802. The Yorke is a fascinating region, both in its history and its scenic attractions.
018
Go Caravan and Camping Guide
Much of the historical interest centres on what’s known as the Copper Triangle, anchored by the towns of Kadina, Wallaroo and Moonta in the north west sector of the peninsula. The Copper Triangle has its roots in the early colonial history of the peninsula. Copper was discovered here in the mid 1800s and Cornish miners were brought in to win the precious ore from the earth. A happy coincidence was that these miners also brought their pasties with them. There is an extensive mining area just out of Moonta, where many of the old mine buildings and shafts have been preserved. Here you can take a train ride through the area, with a guide describing the history of the region. Catch the train at Moonta station, right opposite the Moonta business area. You’ll find some fascinating things to see here. Climb to the top of the skimp (that’s basically a big pile of mullock taken from the mine). You’ll find it near Richman’s Engine house and from the top you’ll enjoy a spectacular view of the surrounding area, the old mines, the town of Moonta and the grain fields. Take a good look at the Moonta Mines Methodist Church. It features beautiful timber balconies and a magnificent pipe organ. During the Cornish Festival it still attracts 1200 worshippers. And if you have a sweet tooth you should check out the old lolly shop. It’s in the old post office, across the road from a
vast museum that recalls the history of the town and the copper mining industry. In Moonta itself you’ll find some magnificent stone buildings. Stone was the preferred building material in the early days of the peninsula, probably because there was a shortage of substantial timber for building. And you’ll also find the Cornish Kitchen, where you can sample a traditional Cornish pastie. Trust me, they are really, really tasty. Kadina and Wallaroo make up the other two points of the Copper Triangle. Both these towns are blessed with some beautiful old stone buildings. Wallaroo is an attractive coastal town with a pretty main street and a long, long jetty from which they load ships with the golden grain produced on the peninsula. In fact, the main industry on the Yorke Peninsula these days is grain growing. Wheat and barley are the main crops, and they reckon that it’s the barley capital of the world. They say that if you’ve ever had a beer in Australia, you’ve had a taste of the Yorke. Along with vast fields of grain, these long jetties are something you’ll see all the way around the Yorke. The shallow waters inshore prevent grain ships from approaching too close, so the grain has to be taken out to the ships via conveyors on these long jetties. And where you see these jetties, you’ll also see fisherfolk, using the jetty to reach their favourite fish and crabs. The jetties

2 carry interesting signs detailing the local regulations. If you fancy a bit of fish to supplement your travelling larder, try jetty fishing. There are little gems to be found throughout the Yorke Peninsula. Just outside the town of Maitland you’ll find White Flint Olive Grove, where you can sample the local oils and relax in the café with scones, jam and cream. And if you get the chance, try their wood fired pizzas. Very tasty. Further south at Minlaton there’s a very unusual museum right by the roadside. Here you’ll find a magnificent aeroplane, the Red Devil, the last Bristol monoplane of its type in the world. The museum is dedicated to Captain Harry Butler, a World War One pilot and local barnstormer. All along the east and west coastlines of the peninsula you’ll find attractive villages, interesting museums and broad, shallow, calm shorelines. And of course, plenty of jetties. Ardrossan, on the east coast, has one other claim to fame – outstanding pies. If you’re a pie lover, visit the Ardrossan Bakery. One Steel Lookout at Ardrossan provides delightful views of the surrounding grain fields and the sparkling blue waters of the Gulf. But it’s the ‘foot’ part of the peninsula, dominated by the Innes National Park, where the really interesting scenery kicks in. From Corny Point in the west to Marion Bay in the east, the foot of the peninsula
visit. is blessed with spectacular cliffs, gorgeous beaches and plenty of wildlife. Take a drive to Corny Point and the lighthouse. Here the coastline is littered with rocky headlands and seabirds are everywhere. Pondalowie Bay, in the heart of the national park, is a fascinating fishing village. The road to Pondalowie from the park gates at Stenhouse Bay reveals cliffs and beaches all the way, while the village of Inneston presents the area’s history as a gypsum mine. There are some nice walks throughout the park if you like to see things on foot. Marion Bay is notable for its tavern and fishing charters are available from there. If the weather is kind you could do much worse than taking a fishing charter for the day. Throughout the Yorke Peninsula you’ll find the roads are caravan friendly, with reasonably good surfaces and, more importantly, very few hills. The towns provide all the shopping you’ll need to stock up the van, and if you can catch fish or crabs, well, that’s just a very tasty bonus. The Yorke Peninsula might not be familiar to all RV travellers, but the Adelaidians sure know about it. It is a very pleasant, pretty and interesting region that’s worth an extended visit.

SOUTH WEST W
ine, whales and wild water – the south western corner of Western Australia has it all.
Western Australia is the boom state in the country at the moment. It’s where everything’s happening, and it’s also the state that eastern campers and RV tourers really want to visit. There are many iconic must-see places in WA; Broome, the Kimberley, Shark Bay to name a few, but the south west of the state also draws its share of travellers looking to experience a slice of life in the Golden West. A word of warning, though. The Great South West slice of life also includes a slice of chocolate, a slice of pie, scones, jam and cream, and a slice of everything else that’s yummy and adds to the waistline. But hey, we can indulge ourselves a little, right? We begin our tour of the Great South West in the Geographe Bay region and the towns of Bunbury and Busselton. Geographe Bay was named after French explorer Nicholas Baudin’s ship, Le Geographe. In company with Le Naturaliste, under the command of Captain Hamelin (after whom Hamelin Bay was named), Le Geographe anchored in Geographe Bay on May 30th, 1801.
020
Go Caravan and Camping Guide
Bunbury is on the eastern end of Geographe Bay and is a rapidly growing regional centre. It is a bustling, lively town that reflects the booming economy of the west. The main industries are mining, and the port exports alumina and woodchips. Boulter’s Lookout provides a nice view of the city, while Marlston Hill, with its high tower, gives a beaut view of the city, the harbour and the surrounding region. Bunbury is mostly a modern, vibrant city, but if you hanker for some old stuff there is only one place to go, the Dardanup Heritage Centre at Dardanup, about 15 minutes out of town. It houses one of the finest collections of restored and operating machinery in Australia. From Bunbury we head around Geographe Bay to bustling Busselton. Busselton is a big town, spreading east and west along the bay. The town business district has become a thriving centre with cafés and plenty of shops. Near the end of the main street, Queen Street, you’ll find a statue of Nicholas Baudin, the French explorer, gazing out at the Busselton Jetty, a 140-year-old timber jetty jutting 1,841 metres out into Geographe Bay. It’s the longest wooden jetty in the southern hemisphere. Further around Geographe Bay we come to Dunsborough, smaller than Busselton but trying very hard to catch up. Again we see the boom in WA reflected in the development in the area.
The town itself is attractive and busy, with plenty of shops, cafés and eateries. From Dunsborough take the Cape Naturaliste road out to the lighthouse on the cape. A guided tour is available explaining the history and workings of the lighthouse, and there are some great coastal views to be had from the top. From Cape Naturaliste we headed south into the Margaret River region. Mention the name Margaret River and the automatic reaction will be – ‘oh, the wine place’. That’s true, but there’s more to the area than just wines, especially if you grab some local area maps and take to the back roads. South from Margaret River the road continues towards Cape Leeuwin, one of the very significant points on the Australian coastline. Just before Cape Leeuwin you’ll see a lookout on the left. From here you’ll get a good view of the Leeuwin Lighthouse and the rugged coastline. What’s so significant about this place? Well, for a start, this is where the Southern and Indian Oceans meet, and at times the seas here can be spectacular. It’s also the point where Matthew Flinders began his mapping of the Australian continent on December 7th, 1801. The first known European sighting of the Cape was made by the Dutch in 1622, who named it “Landt van de Leeuwin”. Flinders named it Cape Leeuwin to acknowledge those early Dutch explorers.
3 There are
many must-see iconic
places in WA.
4 From Cape Leeuwin it’s a turn east to Pemberton and the land of the giant Karri trees. Pemberton is the centre of a really interesting part of South West WA. The countryside becomes more hilly, rivers and streams run cold – cold enough to be stocked with trout, and the valleys are crowded with tall timber. Not just any tall timber, though. Here you’ll see the beautiful, straight trunks of Karri trees – among the tallest trees in the world behind the coast redwoods and spruces of the USA and the mountain ash of Victoria and Tasmania. From Pemberton we head south east to the small village of Northcliffe. Due south of here, off the road to Windy Harbour, is Point D’Entrecasteaux in the D’Entrecasteaux National Park. This is a spectacular headland with a number of well sited lookouts. Make sure you check them all out, because the views from all of them are stunning. Our next stop was the village of Walpole, around 90km along the South Western Highway from Northcliffe. Walpole is a neat little town, a good stopover for a coffee, and we were lucky enough to time our arrival with the monthly markets. They are held on the third Saturday of the month. From Walpole we continue west along the South Coast Highway to Denmark. As you approach Denmark you’ll see a turnoff to the right to William Bay. At
5 the end of this you’ll find Green’s Pool, a gorgeous little spot with clear, clean water and rounded granite headlands and boulders. This is a lovely little spot for a swim. And on the other side of the headland, to the east, you’ll find Elephant Rocks. It’s a spectacular spot crowded with massive rounded boulders looking for all the world like a herd of heffalumps, all clustered in and around crystal clear, sandy water. This too is a great spot for a dip, if your knees can handle a few steps. Fifty kilometres further east from Denmark you’ll find the city of Albany. Blessed with a fascinating history and one of the finest coastlines in Australia, Albany falls into the ‘must see’ category for travellers. Borne of the whalers, sealers and the search for a new convict penal colony in the early 1800s, Albany is the oldest European settlement in WA. As you walk the streets around the waterfront you’ll see some lovely old buildings that reflect the history of the city. Down by Princess Royal Harbour you’ll find a replica of the brig Amity. There are a number of lookouts from which you can see the expanse of Albany and its harbour, particularly on Mount Clarence, on Apex Drive. Here you’ll find a memorial to the Desert Corps of World War One. The coastline around Albany is just fabulous. Follow Frenchman’s Bay Road out towards Torndirrup National Park. Here well placed lookouts allow you to view this spectacular part of the Albany coastline.
In Torndirrup National Park you’ll see the Gap and the Natural Bridge, two amazing formations on the Southern Ocean. At the end of Frenchman’s Bay Road you’ll find Whale World. There are some who would baulk at visiting an old whaling station, particularly in these days of whale watching rather than whale hunting, but Whale World really is another of those ‘must see’ icons. Whaling was once a significant part of early Australian history, and it’s just fascinating to learn of the tough life the whale hunters and the workers led in those days. Albany is just one of the gems to be found in the Great South West of WA. It’s no wonder the region is one of the genuine ‘must sees’ for West Aussie travellers.

VILLAGE PEOPLE A
ll over the country our heritage is being preserved in historical villages, and they’re fascinating places to visit.
Because Australia is such a young country in Western terms, many folks tend to consider its history as not old enough to count for much. I guess in European terms that’s so, at least when it comes to age. We don’t have the Hadrian’s Wall style ruins, the 1000 year old cathedrals and the castles like ‘Mother England’, but on the plus side, our history is still young enough to touch, so to speak. As RV tourers we like to see lots of interesting, different things on our travels, and our early history is one of those attractions. Everywhere we go around Oz there are local museums dedicated to the history of their regions and while they are good in their way, a bunch of faded photographs, old journal records and crusty relics plonked behind glass cases doesn’t really ring the bell, does it? However, scattered throughout the country you can find places where you can immerse yourself in our history. These are not museums, but the historical villages that are beginning to spring up wherever volunteers are ready to make them happen. The difference between a museum and a historical village is pretty significant. While museums are generally “look ‘um, no touch

‘um” affairs in an old woolshed, post office or superannuated town hall, the village approach is way more user friendly and enjoyable. These villages are just that, a collection of old buildings from the region and moved to a central site, then lovingly restored and rebuilt in the manner of their heyday. But just the buildings are not enough. They are then often either fitted out in period style, just as they were when new, or used to house collections of other interesting historical items from around the region. The result is a village of old buildings you can wander around and through at your own pace. And by doing this our history comes to life as you identify odd items your granny used to use, or great grandpa used to work his farm. You’ll find quirky gadgets that were the ant’s pants 100 years ago, and more modern things that you played with as a kid. This is history you can feel and touch, and it’s loads of fun. Historical villages are beginning to pop up all over as local historical societies recognise the value of such projects both to their region as a tourist attraction and to Australia’s overall historical record. They are generally run by volunteers, though some are quite large commercial enterprises. Here are a few of the villages I’ve wandered through on my travels.
from towns and villages in the Inverell region. It’s probably the biggest village of its type in Australia. The main theme of this village is the buildings themselves. They represent the period from the pioneering days through to the early twentieth century and cover everything from Shire halls to school houses, churches, rustic huts and telephone exchanges. The Grove Homestead might well be Australia’s first ‘kit’ home. The components were assembled in Newcastle in 1841, then hauled north by bullock train. The old Nallamanna church was moved onto the site and is still used today for weddings. The old Inverell Hospital Ward has been restored and is now used to house an RSL museum of militaria, with displays from both World Wars, and some more recent displays we younger vets will recognise. And the old Goonoowigall School brings back memories of pigtails, inkwells and the good old cane. Truly, there is a huge collection of buildings here – an old woolshed, a dairy, a blacksmith’s shop, newspaper office – the list is endless. And in many cases they are fitted out in period style. Ahh, and at certain times you can get scones, jam and cream at the village store.

5 also features a collection of restored buildings from the surrounding area, but in their case they’ve assembled them in a ‘town’ fashion around a dusty main street. This is a beauty. You can walk along the old boardwalks past the shopfronts, wandering in to see what’s in the old shops. You’ll see a beaut café, an old pub complete with batwing doors, banks, schools and churches. In the back street you’ll find old sheds with farm machinery and trucks, a military museum and in one building (a new one) is a magnificent lapidary collection. If you’re into polished rocks and gemstones, fossils and seashells, this is a must. One interesting feature is the little old railway station, complete with an old steam engine parked out the front. As the story goes, they needed to build a temporary rail line across the Warrego Highway, then pushed the old engine across to the village with a tractor and then removed the temporary track. I wonder what the truckies thought about that? Right by the entrance kiosk there are a couple of museum buildings housing an amazing collection of memorabilia, from money to matchboxes. There’s also a restored bootmaker’s shop, with old boots and shoes, and a collection of lasts and bootmaker’s tools. The Miles and District Historical Village should be on every RV tourer’s list of things to see on their way along the Warrego.

Timbertown, Wauchope NSW Opened in 1976, Timbertown is considered to be one of Australia’s best historical parks. As the name implies, Timbertown is all about the timber industry that flourished during the early history of the NSW coast. Here you’ll find an operating steam mill chugging away, with its massive bands spinning the saws. There is also a steam train that takes visitors on a fascinating journey through the park, amongst the tall timber and across timber trestle bridges. Perhaps the most fascinating display in Timbertown is the bullock team. At regular times during the day the bullocky works his team, hauling a massive log around the presentation area, then walks the team through the village up to the sawmill. The crack of the whip and the unusual lingo of the bullocky bring the timber history of the past to life. But there’s more to Timbertown than steam and bullocks. Down on the main street you can dine at the restaurant, taste the local wines, get yourself an icecream at the lolly shop or watch the wood turner plying his craft. Timbertown really is an enjoyable historical park, somewhat different to the others, but still able to bring our history to life. Oh, and make sure you check out the lolly factory in the entry building. Even old big kids like a good lolly! These and other historical villages serve a couple of purposes. Certainly they are entertaining and trigger memories of the
past, but they also serve to remind visitors young and old that the history of Australia is just as important and significant as that of other, older nations. It’s the sort of stuff that must be preserved for future generations to enjoy. As many of these villages are run by volunteers, make sure you sling a few dollars into the donations tin. It will help keep our history alive.

TOURING TO THE TOP I
t’s a long way to the Top End by road, but it really is worth the effort.
For many folks in the eastern capitals, a trip to the Top End involves hopping aboard one of Mr Branson’s bombers for a three-hour stratospheric cruise in air conditioned comfort. If you do have a bit of time up your sleeve though, a much more satisfying way to reach the Top End is by road. Okay, so it’s a long haul – Darwin is 3500km from Brisbane, and that’s the closest of the eastern cities! However there are real advantages in taking on such a trek. Take the run from Brisbane to the Top, via the Warrego, Landsborough, Flinders, Barkly and Stuart Highways, for example. You’ll pass through some magnificent downs country into outback Queensland, then veer north through the vast plains country up to Cloncurry and through the rugged ranges to Mt Isa. Then it’s on to Camooweal and the vast Barkly Tableland in the Territory, and north through desert and savannah country to Darwin. Along the way you’ll pass through a host of towns and villages, all different and all offering something of interest to the traveller. Toowoomba is the sprawling capital city of the Darling Downs. This will be your last taste of city life for quite a while.
026
Go Caravan and Camping Guide
Further west there’s little Miles and its historical village. This sprawling museum is like stepping into the pioneering past. You’ll pass through Roma with its oil and gas mining history, and the huge cattle yards. A sale day at the yards is quite a sight. Your first taste of the ‘official’ Outback comes at tiny Amby. Be sure to call in at its classic bush pub. Your route then leads north to Blackall, the home of the Black Stump and its fascinating wool scour, and Barcaldine with its connection with the political history of Australia. The Artesian pub across the road from the railway is a beaut. Longreach is the only bush town in the world with a jumbo jet parked next to the highway, and there are a host of other attractions for the traveller. Further north is tiny Kynuna and the famous Blue Heeler Hotel. You’ll pass through Cloncurry and on to Mt Isa and the massive mines, and then its a long haul to Camooweal and the Territory border. Barkly Roadhouse is an oasis in the middle of the vast Barkly Tableland, and there are a number of free campsites along this route. After crossing the Barkly you’ll arrive at the Three Ways, at the intersection of the Stuart and Barkly Highways, just north of Tennant Creek. The Stuart passes through desert country before arriving at Mataranka Springs and its welcome pools, then it’s on to Katherine and the gateway to Nitmiluk and Kakadu National Parks. Adelaide River is a welcome stopover, with its beaut pub with the buffalo in the
corner – stuffed, of course. Then finally you roll into Darwin with its harbour and, of course, its crocs.
Timing It really is best to visit the Territory in the dry season – generally from April to September. The wet season really is just that – wet. It’s monsoon country and the humidity really cranks up.
Nights in the bush One of the genuine advantages in bush camping in the dry interior is the night sky. Sure, during the day you may have to put up with a host of those tiny black desert flies, but when the sun goes down and the flies go to bed, the night sky lights up in all its glory. With the air so clear and no light ‘pollution’, you’ll be simply amazed. Satellites and shooting stars, constellations and galaxies all stand out in sharp detail – and the sky is so bright you hardly need a torch to see your way around.
Desert You’ll travel through a lot of desert country on the run from Brisbane to the Top. Take the time to pull over and take a close look. See the varnish on the stones and the low growth habit of the vegetation. Dunes too are part of the equation, as are breakaways and rocky outcrops.
3 Along the way you’ll
see real
and experience the
Australia.
2 Plains In vast areas of western Queensland and particularly on the Barkly Tableland in the Territory you’ll be in big sky country – the horizon is so far away across incredibly flat plains that you can almost see forever.
Activities Try to plan your journey to include an iconic bush event or two, such as the Winton Camel Races in July, or the Country Music Talent Quest in Adelaide River in June. There are a host of quirky events you can enjoy, to go with the more formal activities.
National parks As is usually the case, all the spectacular country in the Top End is locked up in national parks. This means access will cost you a few dollars, but this is offset by the fact that roads and camping sites are usually well maintained. On your run north you’ll pass close by the famous Kakadu, Nitmiluk and Litchfield National Parks. You should plan to visit as many of these areas as possible. The countryside is just spectacular.
Animals One thing you should take note of on such a long journey is the animal life by the roadsides. You’ll see many different creatures – eagles, kites and crows feeding on roadkill,
emus and brolgas in the paddocks, along with wallabies and kangaroos in big numbers. And that’s not to mention the ferals – mobs of wild camels along with goats and the occasional fox. You might wonder why the big trucks and the locals all have big bullbars on their vehicles. At night all sorts of creatures will wander onto the roads, so it’s best to spend the night in camp rather than on the roads in these parts. The last thing you need is damage to your vehicle out here. And of course the rivers of the Territory are home to those really big lizards – the crocs. You’ll see warning signs on the rivers along the way in the Top End. They are not there for decoration!
Vehicle/camper Travelling by camper or towing a van with a bit of independent camping capability is a real advantage. You can save costs by putting in a bit of bush camping and this also opens up a new range of experiences. You’ll meet like minded people, and get up close and personal with your surroundings. There are van parks and campgrounds all along the route, so you’ll have plenty of choice. Certainly it’s a long drive from the eastern cities to the Top End, but it’s well worth the time and effort. Along the way you’ll see and experience the real Australia, not just the insides of a jet.

GOLD COUNTRY CRUISIN’ T
he Ballarat region was born of the gold rushes of the mid 1800s, and it retains much of that early colonial charm.
It could be said that Ballarat and the surrounding region is the cradle of Australian culture. Certainly other regions may claim this, but in the mid 1800s the area around Ballarat saw a massive influx of migrants, a revolution of sorts and the beginnings of democracy in Australia. Gold was the catalyst for the emergence of Ballarat as a major regional city. Gold was discovered in 1851 on what was then simply a squatter’s run. By 1855 major buildings had been constructed and Ballarat grew in prominence in the colony. Thankfully many of the historically significant buildings in Ballarat have been preserved, and as you wander the streets of the city the magnificent stone facades provide a fascinating echo of Ballarat’s past glory as a booming city of gold. But gold is the key to Ballarat and it’s the yellow metal and its history that draw travellers to the city. Throughout the city there are attractions and displays of gold and the history of the great rush of the mid 1800s. The Ballarat Gold Museum is a fine place to begin. Here you’ll find historical
028
Go Caravan and Camping Guide
artefacts, images and presentations on gold in the region, and more to the point, you can see nuggets of all shapes and sizes. Not far from the Gold Museum is Sovereign Hill, one of the major tourist attractions in Australia and a fascinating place to visit to get a real feel for the goldfields of old. After all, at Sovereign Hill you really are walking on those very fields. This place is a faithful reconstruction of the town in the 1850s, and everywhere you look there are displays and attractions in recreated buildings that really put you back in time. You can eat boiled lollies made in the traditional way, have an ale at the United States Hotel, take a mine tour and even go panning for gold in Red Hill Gully Creek. You’ll need to spend a whole day here. With the gold rush came more and more prospectors seeking their fortune and, as governments do, the then Lieutenant Governor, Charles Hotham saw a tax dollar in all these hopeful diggers. His tax of one pound a month – a licence fee – was imposed on all diggers, whether they found gold or not. This tax was the basis of the Eureka Uprising, which culminated in an armed conflict on December 3rd, 1854. Hundreds of police and troopers attacked the miner’s camp, killing more than a dozen and arresting the rest. The result was a revision of the licence fee and the beginnings of Australia’s democracy. Now that might all be in the past, but at Ballarat there are two places where you can revisit those wild days. The Eureka Centre
2
(on Eureka Street) has a magnificent display, and the nightly Blood on the Wattle presentation at Sovereign Hill will get your blood boiling. After all that you’ll need a change of pace, so visit the Ballarat Wildlife Park in York Street. Here you can relax among the roos, wallabies, koalas and emus, and see a neat snake display. The smaller towns surrounding Ballarat also have a fascinating history. Gold really built the region and as gold was discovered in the area, so the smaller towns built up. North west of Ballarat is the very pleasant town of Ararat. Ararat is historically significant in that it is the first town in Australia to be established by the Chinese. In May 1857 there were prospectors fossicking in the hills around Ararat. The Chinese diggers who passed through the area were not really popular with the other diggers and were chased off the hills. As they rested by a spring they found what was to be the greatest alluvial gold find in the world. The goldfield first became known as Chinamen’s Hole, then Canton Lead, and finally, Ararat. The Gum San Chinese Heritage Centre is built right on the Canton Lead and presents an intriguing insight into the Chinese influence and culture in Ararat. From Ararat we head through rolling country to Avoca, on the edge of the Pyrenees Range. Avoca is a quiet little town with a wide main street and some attractive old buildings. It was established in 1852 after gold was discovered nearby.
3 ...there are
good enjoyable van parks
and loads of other attractions to make your touring visit most
After the gold ran out Avoca became a rural centre for the region, but it’s interesting to note that Avoca, and all the other small (and large) towns in this part of Victoria, have their roots well and truly buried in the gold bearing earth. Today you can find gold here in the form of wines from the Blue Pyrenees Estate and the Avoca Estate. Around 25km east of Avoca you’ll find the more substantial town of Maryborough. Maryborough is a substantial regional centre with all facilities and shops available for the traveller. Not surprisingly, Maryborough too has its roots deep in the gold veins of the region. It’s a pleasant town with some impressive buildings and a busy and prosperous feel to it. The main street (High Street) is rather narrow, but features the spectacular Bull and Mouth Hotel. Parallel to High Street is Clarendon Street, where you’ll find McLandress Square and an imposing collection of historical buildings, the Court House, Post Office and Town Hall. Maryborough Railway Station was completed in 1891 and is among the most significant in Victoria. All around this region you’ll find small towns steeped in the history of the area, all centred on gold. Tiny Talbot, not far from Maryborough, is a town that’s trapped in the past, with a main street that just begs for a horse drawn carriage to pass through. Maldon also is an interesting town, with up market shops and for train buffs a great
steam train journey between Maldon and Castlemaine. And if the gold fever bites you and you’re looking for a bit of fossicking, there are maps and equipment available all through the region that will point out the places to try your luck. And don’t think it’s all been found. Folks are still winning fine nuggets from this region. Ballarat and its surrounding villages and towns are certainly steeped in the history of the gold rushes and the early colonial days, and throughout the area there are good van parks and loads of other attractions to make your touring visit most enjoyable. The cradle of Aussie culture? Maybe, but after you visit the Ballarat region you’ll certainly gaze on the Eureka Flag with a little more respect.

EASTERN RIVERINA NSW T
he Eastern Riverina, centred on the towns of Cootamundra, Junee and Temora, is a region full of pleasant surprises.
One of the best things about wandering around the country is being able to take the time to go ‘off highway’ and explore areas off the main through routes. One such area is the region centred on the towns of Cootamundra, Temora and Junee in the eastern part of the NSW Riverina. The region is bypassed by the Hume Highway to the east, and the Newell Highway to the west, and like most country areas in Australia it is rich in history, activities and attractions. Cootamundra is a busy town on the Olympic Way, a major rail centre and the hub of a thriving beef, lamb, wool and grain growing area. Cootamundra was first settled in the 1830s, centred on a pioneer stock station known as Cootamondra. By the 1860s it was known as the village of Cootamondry and eventually became known as Cootamundra. The railway came through in 1877 and brought with it further prosperity, as did the discovery of gold in the surrounding areas. Today the streets are lined with heritage-listed buildings, there are fine parks and plenty of attractions and activities of interest to the traveller.

The tourist centre is on Hovell Street in the railway station complex and here you’ll find a heap of information about Coota and the surrounding region. The railway complex is an attraction in itself, particularly the huge signal gantry. You can also buy lots of local and regional goodies in the centre. Perhaps the major attraction in Coota is the birthplace of the late Sir Donald Bradman. You don’t have to be a cricket tragic to know about ‘The Don’. There is no doubt he was the greatest cricketer ever to pull on a baggy green cap. There is a small museum on Adams Street where you can see the very place Bradman was born and examine plenty of cricketing memorabilia. Further on down Adams Street you’ll see Bradman Oval, with the world’s biggest cricket stumps. If you still need a cricket fix, visit the Captain’s Walk in Jubilee Park off Olney Street. Here you’ll find beautifully sculpted busts of all Australia’s cricket captains, set in lovely gardens. North of Cootamundra, just out of the village of Wallendbeen on the Young road, you’ll find Yandilla Mustard Seed Oils. This is a bit tricky for parking if you have a big RV, but it’s worth a visit, especially if you want to spice up your life with a bit of mustard, relish, or their delicious oils. Around 50km south west of Cootamundra is the interesting town of Junee. Junee began life as a pastoral lease – the Jewnee Run – and developed during the gold rushes from 1860 to 1880. The railway came
2
through in 1878 and Junee grew into the regional centre it is today, servicing the surrounding beef, lamb and grain growing areas. Junee is a really interesting town, centred on the railway, with a very picturesque precinct around the railway station and square. Old pubs dressed in iron lace crowd the corners, and the buildings around the square are beautiful. Railway buffs will find the Junee Railway Roundhouse absolutely fascinating. It’s a beaut museum centred on the Junee Roundhouse with its 100 foot turntable, once the largest in the southern hemisphere. Here you’ll find all sorts of displays and memorabilia, particularly from the steam era. Another must see (or ‘must taste’) in Junee is the licorice and chocolate factory. It’s housed in an old mill and here you can watch the products being made and take an informative tour of the operation. There’s a coffee shop here (and the coffee is good) and of course there are tastings, and lots of goodies for sale. If you have a sweet tooth, or a taste for dark chocolate, you can stock up here (the dark chocolate coated ginger is particularly more-ish). The drive north from Junee to Temora takes in some very pleasant country, with open fields of wheat and canola adding a splash of colour to the landscape. The colours change with the seasons and the crops, so it’s always refreshing in this part of the world. Temora was a pastoral community in the 1860s and the village was established with the coming of the gold rush in 1879. At one

4 point during the peak of the rush, Temora and surrounds carried a population of around 20,000. Gold was big time in these parts, with the biggest nugget found being won from the Mother Shipton mine in 1882. It broke into three parts as it was dug out, and the combined gold weight was 308 ounces. That made somebody’s day, I’ll bet! Today Temora, like Coota and Junee, is a regional centre for the surrounding beef, lamb, wool and grain growing activities. It’s a busy town with all the facilities a traveller needs, and friendly locals to point you in the right direction. Some classic old buildings grace the streets, particularly some of the old pubs with their iron lace verandas. Many NSW country towns feature an aeroplane on a stick, but in the main street Temora has a horse, or more accurately, a pacer and driver. It’s not just any horse though. Paleface Adios and his driver, Col Pike, was one of Australia’s finest pacers and was known as the Temora Tornado. To find out more about Temora’s history, visit the Temora Rural Museum on the Wagga/Junee Road. Here you’ll find some fascinating exhibits and collections of tractors and mill machinery (all still operable). And you’ll also find some Bradman memorabilia here. While ‘The Don’ was born in Cootamundra, his home for his first couple of years was in a locality known
as Yeo Yeo. The Temora Museum has rebuilt the house and restored it in their grounds. These days Temora is probably mostly known for its aviation, and the remarkable Temora Aviation Museum. This museum is really amazing, whether you are an aircraft nut or not. The collection of old aircraft, photographs and memorabilia is outstanding. It gets even better if you time your visit to coincide with one of their flying weekends, held regularly throughout the year. Many of the older, classic aircraft fly on these days, and they are so popular it’s almost impossible to find any accommodation in town on these weekends. The easy answer is, book ahead! Scattered around the three main centres are many small, almost forgotten villages worth exploring. One such place is Ariah Park, about 35km west of Temora. It was the place where, in 1916, bulk wheat was first loaded into rail cars in Australia. Prior to then, wheat was transported in bags. Ariah Park has a classic hotel, friendly locals, a lovely main street full of peppercorn trees, and a beaut free campsite. Smaller regional centres like Cootamundra, Junee and Temora, and the villages surrounding them, are chock full of fascinating things for the RV tourer to see and enjoy on their travels. And there are places like this all over Australia. No wonder RV touring is so addictive and enjoyable.

FOR
AALL FISH SEASONS F
ishing is growing in popularity, particularly among RV tourers.
For the RV tourer, life is good. Cruising around the country enjoying all there is to see and do has to be one of life’s more pleasurable times. But among all the things we can do while on the road, there’s one activity above all that has multiple benefits. Goin’ fishin’. Fishing, and more importantly, catching fish, should be right on top of the tourer’s agenda. Why? Let us count the reasons. For a start, fishing is fun, more than anything else. It provides relaxation, excitement and immeasurable peace and quiet. It can provide plenty of exercise. It allows one to immerse oneself fully in an environment in a way that just can’t be matched in any other activity. A fish provides the healthiest meal you can possibly eat. And last but not least, fishing can save you money! Now, many may think that to be successful at fishing, or more accurately, catching a feed of fish, comes as a result of many years of practice. Up to a point that’s true, however the basics are pretty simple and a fisherman’s education can be fast tracked by studying the immense amount of ‘how to’ information out there in books, magazines and on the internet.

But as a primer, here are some tips for travellers wanting to catch a feed of fish on their next trip. I’ve aimed this at those travelling around the eastern states, simply because there are more tourers there than anywhere else. What we’ll cover here are two basic fishing situations – inland fishing and coastal fishing.
sometimes tough to find a fish, but that’s the way of inland fishing. But even if you don’t catch a feed, you’ll find yourself immersed in your surroundings. The bird life along the inland waterways is fabulous and there is always something going on. Coastal fishing is quite different, but it’s where you’ll have the best chance at catching a feed.
Inland Fishing
Coastal Fishing
Inland fishing falls into two broad categories, rivers and creeks, and the inland dams. Both can be fished from the shore or from a small boat or canoe, and you really only need one fishing outfit to cover both spots.
Coastal fishing can be divided into two broad categories for the travelling angler – the coastal estuaries and the surf beaches. The estuaries can be fished from the shore or from a small car-top tinnie, or a canoe for that matter. The beaches are for shore fishing only. You will need two outfits to fish the coastal waters successfully, an estuary outfit and a surf outfit.
Inland Gear You’ll need a short rod (2 metres max) that will handle a small threadline reel capable of holding 300 metres of 4kg line. You can buy these separately or as a kit. You’ll need a bunch of different sized sinkers (ball sinkers up to about 10mm in diameter) and a selection of hooks from No. 4 up to 1/0 (you can also get these in kits from the likes of Big W and Kmart). Baits of worms or yabbies will do. Just cast them into eddies, backwaters, around sunken trees or snags, and sit back and wait. This is inland fishing at its simplest and you can catch yellowbelly, grunter, trout (in the cold country) and even small cod this way. It’s not active fishing, and it’s
Fishing the Estuaries The gear you’ll need for estuary fishing is exactly the same as the gear you use in fresh water, right down to the hooks and sinkers, so there’s no need to lash out on another kit. It would be handy, however, to invest in some long shanked hooks in sizes No. 4 to 1/0. Baits you’ll need for the estuary are prawns and worms. If you invest in a yabbie pump you can also catch your own bait of saltwater yabbies.

fun more
Fishing is
,
than
anything else.
4 Estuaries are a maze of sand flats and channels, rocky bars and mangroves, and here you’ll find the prime estuary fish – flathead, bream and whiting. Cast your bait on the edges of channels, where the sand flats drop off into deeper water, along the edge of rock bars and mangrove banks. For a bit more action, wander along the sandbars at low tide, casting your bait to the deeper edges and retrieving it slowly. This is a prime flathead tactic, but it will also attract whiting and bream.
Fishing the Beaches Here you’ll need another outfit, but just the rod. The small threadline reel you use on the inland/estuary rod will work in the surf for the smaller species, and these are the ones we’ll target. The rod needs to be around the 3 – 3.5 metre mark, be two-piece for transport convenience, and be light and fairly flexible. You’ll need to ensure it will suit that reel of yours, but the line suited to the rod will be marked on it, and that will give you a clue. A rod capable of handling up to 6kg line will do the job. The only other addition to the kit might be a few slightly larger ball sinkers, and a pack of small swivels. The same baits you use in the estuary will work in the surf, with the addition of pippies which you may be able to find on your beach.
Cast the bait into the deeper patches, recognised by their darker blue/green colour, and very slowly retrieve the line. Keep working all sides of the deeper patch. Here you’ll find our old friends the bream, flathead and whiting of the estuaries, with perhaps a dart or two thrown in.
Extras A small car-top tinnie can really open up the options for you and give you more chances at finding a fish. Look for a small boat, around the 3 metre mark. As this goes onto roof racks on your tow car, make sure the weight is suitable. A self loading roof rack is a great boon, and there are a number of these on the market. A folding trailer can be mounted onto your caravan’s rear bar or A-frame, and so too can a small outboard. A bait pump is a good investment because it will supply you with top class bait from the estuaries at no cost. Rods can be stored in the pole locker of your van, carried in the back of the tow car, or even inside the van. So how does catching a fish save you money? One small to medium flathead will, with a bit of salad or maybe some chips, feed two people. Three of these in a week will provide three meals – meals that you would otherwise have to pay for. And doctors recommend eating three fish meals a week. Easy, hey?
If you have a freezer on board, catching fish is an even better prospect. When the fish are ‘on’ (and you’ll find they are on occasions), you might catch your bag limit – say 10 reasonable flathead. That’s 10 reasonable fish dinners for two. Flathead freeze well, so a bag limit will give you two or three weeks’ supply of fish dinners in the freezer. Okay, so fishing can be a bit smelly, but it also adds a bit of spice to a trip, it’s loads of fun, and healthy too. Good exercise, top food and a dollar saver to boot. Why wouldn’t you go fishing?

TEMORA AVIATION MUSEUM W
e all love visiting museums as we travel around Australia, but for we blokes there are certain museums that hold a special attraction. It may be all about boys’ toys, but it’s more likely that we older blokes find some special memories triggered at aviation museums.
Those of us around retirement age can find it a bit misty looking back at our childhood days. Things may have been a bit lean in the toy department, but I’ll bet that somewhere in the toybox you had a model of an aeroplane. There was more of a fascination with aircraft in those times. Aeroplanes were not anywhere near as common as they are today. In the fifties and sixties you’d stop and stare when any aircraft flew over. And in those days the aircraft had loads of character, unlike today’s rather boring commercial jets. After all, we didn’t fly much in those days, unless it was an overseas trip. Domestic travel was more road and rail based than via aircraft. And then, of course, there were the aircraft types. Depending on where you lived, you might see a Boeing 727 or DC9, a Fokker Friendship or an old DC3 clattering around the sky on domestic flights. Better still, this old Novocastrian recalls F4
034
Go Caravan and Camping Guide
Phantoms, De-Havilland Vampires and CAC Sabre fighters howling around above Newcastle. Yet while those aircraft were (and are) fascinating, it’s the still older birds that really grab the attention – those with the big fan on the front. Legendary aircraft such as Spitfires and Mustangs attract the eyes (and the ears) of everybody, and the smoky start-up of big radial powered Mitchells and Bostons is irresistible. Old aeroplanes are like old cars – we blokes love to look at ‘em! Most aviation collections involve aircraft, engines and memorabilia in a hanger somewhere, but if you fancy a real taste of aviation nostalgia, head to Temora Aviation Museum on one of their flying days. The Temora Aviation Museum is at Temora in NSW, about five hours’ drive from Sydney. It’s located at the Temora Airport, right on the edge of town. At Temora there is an emphasis on restoring their historical aircraft to FLYING condition, not just for static display purposes. There are flying demonstrations twice per month and there is a team of dedicated volunteers who do loads of work to ensure that these flying days are spectacular. As you walk through the main gate you’ll be greeted with a hangar crowded with aircraft. They’ll all be historical birds and mostly all old warbirds. Immediately you’ll begin identifying the various types. Some will be easily recognisable. Everyone
knows what a Spitfire looks like, of course, the classic design of Reginald Mitchell that was so famous and effective during World War II. Others might have you scratching your head. All the aircraft are painted in original colours and beautifully restored. They look brand new. The activity on the ramp will also draw your attention. Volunteers scurry about amongst the planes, cleaning windscreens, positioning the aircraft and readying them for the day’s flying. Not long after they open the gates some of the engines are warmed up. You might hear the rattling roar of the radials engines on the Wirraway and the stubby little Boomerang fighter. Perhaps you’ll see the smoky start-up of the Hudson Bomber. With engines turning, the anticipation begins to rise. The crowds gather on the fence and the PA system begins the commentary. The flying displays often involve two aircraft at a time and they do paired and single flybys nice and low in front of the crowd. You don’t miss a thing. Once the aircraft are back on the ground there’s one more fascinating part of the day at Temora – the ramp talk. All the aircraft are positioned around the ramp and a rope barrier run out before them. Then the crowd is invited onto the ramp, up close and personal to the aircraft they’ve seen perform, to chat with the pilots. It’s a beaut way to find out what it’s like to fly these wonderful aircraft, right from the horse’s mouth, so to speak.

Even if you’re not an aeroplane fanatic, the Temora Aviation Museum is a fascinating place to visit, if only to see that some of Australia’s aviation history has been well and truly preserved for the future. Temora is located between the Hume and Newell Highways in NSW. It’s easily accessible by good roads from Junee in the south, Cootamundra in the east and Narrandera in the west.

PLANNING YOUR TRIP W
hether you fancy a weekend jaunt, a fortnight trip over the school holidays, or the big dream getaway around the country, planning and preparation prior to departure is a critical factor in making your trip successful and enjoyable.
Planning your trip need not be a chore. In fact, it becomes part of the fun, building the anticipation until departure day when you finally hit the road. Planning your trip can be broken down into segments, each addressing certain aspects and requirements of your journey.
Travel objectives No doubt everybody planning a trip will have a favoured location in mind, whether it be Uluru or Urunga, but whatever the destination, you’ll need to work out how to get there, how long you’ll be staying and what you’ll see en route. For single destination travellers the first thing to look at is the time available to you. It’s no good planning a trip from Melbourne to Mackay if you only have a week free. You’ll need to allow adequate time for travelling and plenty of time to enjoy the delights of your chosen location. Dig out the
036
Go Caravan and Camping Guide
maps and plan a route that involves main road travel and easy driving, and allow for overnight accommodation in transit. For those contemplating visiting a number of locations, perhaps in a loop or round trip, the objectives become a little more complicated.
Route planning If a long range trip is your dream, plan your route to take advantage of the incredible variety of locations you’ll pass along the way. This may take you off the main roads, but you’ll see so much more than just barrelling along a highway. Trawl the various tourism websites to find out what’s along your route, and plan your daily drives to include them. Many folks on long trips never travel much more than 100km in a day, hopping from location to location and having plenty of time to see the sights. If you can arrange it, plan your visits to coincide with festivals or other activities. These can be heaps of fun and add much to your enjoyment of the trip. Again, the tourism websites should have dates and times of these events recorded. And don’t be afraid to check out some of the quirkier smaller events, such as the mouse races at Bylong in NSW, or yabbie racing at Charleville QLD. Stopovers can be locked in right at the planning stage. Booking campsites and van park accommodation ahead is a good idea, particularly in school holidays and peak
travel times, or if your planned stopover coincides with a major event, such as the Birdsville Races or Elvis Festival. If you’re heading into more remote country, fuel, food and water stops have to be built into your travel plans. Be aware of the fuel consumption of your vehicle, particularly if you’re towing a loaded caravan, and allow plenty of overlap between fuel stops. Keep fuel types in mind, also. Diesel and ordinary unleaded are widely available, but not so autogas or premium unleaded. Once you’ve accumulated all this information, record it on a laptop or in a notebook. You can also use travel times, distances travelled and the number of stopovers you’ll be making, to work out a rough budget so you can keep an eye on costs. Be aware that the cost of fuel and some foodstuffs is higher in country areas than it is in the cities.
Maps and GPS Good, detailed maps are an essential part of a long range trip. Similarly, a GPS unit will provide regular updates of your position. Both these items will make things easier if you’re looking for a track into a remote campsite, fishing spot or fossicking area. Remember that the GPS will be unlikely to show detail of many remote spots, so good maps, particularly recent topographic maps, will ensure you’ll find what you’re looking for.

.
2 3 Rig preparation No matter what your form of transport – 4WD, caravan, motorhome, camper trailer or simply tents loaded in the car boot – you’ll need to give all your travel gear a thorough checkover before you go. For a start, you’ll need to have your vehicle fully serviced to ensure it is completely reliable. If you’re heading off on dirt roads, be sure to inform your vehicle serviceman. He’ll make sure fuel, oil and air filters are serviceable and that oils and greases are topped up. Make sure brakes and gearbox are all functioning properly. If you plan to tow a caravan or camper trailer, you’ll need to give these rigs a good going over. Check the wheels and tyres on the van. Make sure the tyres are in good shape, with plenty of tread, and that the wheel nuts are tight. It’s not a bad idea to hop underneath the RV and check the securing nuts on the suspension and make sure the underside hoses and cables are all tucked up out of the way. Check to see the RV’s electrics are all working and that house battery chargers are operating. If you have solar panels up top, pick a sunny day and make sure they are producing power. Make sure also that electric trailer brakes (if fitted) are working properly Check the rear lights on the RV, as well as the clearance lights, and make sure gas bottles are mounted securely and are not leaking around the fittings: a bit of water
and detergent does the job here; slop it around the connections, and if you get bubbles, you have a leak. Inside your RV, check all cupboard latches for a secure closure, make sure all your crockery is packed securely and can’t rattle about, and test-run your fridge to make sure it’s operating correctly. Also check your door, window and overhead hatch seals, especially those at the rear of the van, to avoid leaks in rainy weather, or dust ingress on dirt roads. Make sure the external bits and pieces for your van are all operable and secure. Check that things like jacks, power leads, water hoses, flat blocks for the corner steadies and poles and ropes for the annex are all stowed securely. The hitch is what keeps your van or camper following you, so make sure it’s clean and serviceable, ensure safety chains are fitted, and carry a couple of spare D-shackles in case you lose one. Give the electrical connectors a squirt of WD-40 to ensure a clean connection. It also pays to include a few cable ties, just in case you need to secure any cabling either on the A-frame or under the van. If you’re simply toting a tent, erect it in the backyard before you pack it for the trip. Make sure all the ropes and poles are there, and in decent condition, and the fly is free of holes. Refer to the checklist on page 39 outlining much of the gear you’ll need to consider taking on your trip.
Safety / home security If you’re off on a long touring holiday you’ll need to take care of more than just your travelling gear. Personal and home considerations need to be included in your trip planning. For a start, most folks who are able to get away for long periods are of an age where regular medications must be taken. These medications are a priority and before you head off you should ask your doctor for a fresh prescription to allow you to maintain a regular supply. And don’t forget the Medicare card. Besides the prescription medication, you should also pack such things as sunscreen, anti-itch cream for bites and a basic first aid kit with bandaids and ointments. Ensure your home and car insurances are up to date, and cover and road service is available to you in the states you’ll be travelling through. It’s a good idea to take a photocopy of the policies with you.

1 Your home needs some special attention. The worst thing you can do is hit the road and expect the house will look after itself. A yard full of long grass and weeds, and a letterbox overflowing with mail, makes a place look abandoned and is liable to attract the attention of crooks. One option is to arrange for your yard to be maintained on a regular basis, and fit timers to radios and some internal lights, or have friends or relatives stop over occasionally to look after the place. These days house-sitters are a common option – folks who actually live in your home, look after it and collect your mail. With people there all the time it’s less likely the crooks will be attracted to it.
truck band – sometimes channel 40 or channel 8. The truck bands can often carry a bit of blue language, but if it worries you, turn it down. If there are problems on the road, you’ll hear about it on the truck channels. They can also often relay a message for you if you get into strife.
We all depend on communications these days and there are a number of options available for the traveller, even in those remote areas of the country.
Mobile phones are everywhere – everybody on the planet has one, but they don’t always work outside the larger towns and built up areas. The best option is a mobile hooked into the Next G network. This has a much wider coverage in the bush, however, it too is limited, and the further away from towns you go, the less chance of coverage.
Every traveller should have a laptop along with them. Aside from the obvious communications benefits of email and programs like Skype, they also allow you to store your digital images and provide a perfect diary for you to record your trip.
Mail forwarding Snail mail can be collected by friends or relatives and forwarded to a designated Post Office along your route. Similarly, there are a number of mail forwarding services that will do the same.
Satellite phones are probably the ultimate in communication devices for travellers in remote country. They are much more expensive to buy and operate than mobile phones, but they will work anywhere and can be a lifesaver if things go wrong.
Mobile phones
Laptop computers
Communications
Satellite phones
Internet Next G modems are available for laptops that will give you the same coverage as Next G mobiles. Many van parks and remote towns have internet cafés where you can access the internet.
EPIRBs Boaties and bushwalkers (should) know about these devices. The acronym stands for Electronic Position Indicating Radio Beacon, and for those operating out in the trackless outback, they can be a lifesaver. If you head off across the desert, either on a camping trip or with an off-road camper trailer behind, and the worst happens, activating an EPIRB will bring help. It fires an emergency radio signal that can be picked up by satellites or aircraft. It’s a locator beacon and rescuers can home in on it. EPIRBs have saved a lot of lives. It also pays to leave a touring plan with relatives or friends so that, should the need arise, your whereabouts can be traced. This may sound a little extreme, but things can go wrong, and if you’re in an area where ordinary communications won’t work, and the worst happens, at least someone knows roughly where you’ll be.
CB radios CB radios are almost essential for any long road trips. They are line-of-sight units with a fairly short range, but they allow you to communicate with other vanners – generally on channel 18 – or let you listen in on the

Recording your trip Believe it or not, this is one of the most important aspects of your travels. Sure, it may not involve safety, but it will definitely enhance your trip. The real challenge is making the time to record as much as you can, right from the beginning. It’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of heading off on the big trip, but make it a point to record every aspect of your journey, no matter how trivial it seems at the time. And remember, the more extensive the record you keep, the better. When you return home you’ll get a whole lot of pleasure in re-living the journey with friends or relatives, and a visual and written record is far better than just memories.
as an accounting record, keeping tabs on the costs involved on the trip. It’s also a good idea to record any little glitches you have along the way, such as items you’ve left at home, or stuff that doesn’t operate the way it should.
When you return from your trip this record will provide a trigger for all the memories you’ve accumulated, and will also serve as the basis of planning your next big journey.

You simply must take a camera with you. These days digital cameras are really very good and are reasonably priced. Make sure the camera outfit you get has a download capability so you can store your images on your computer. It also pays to have a CD or DVD burner in your computer so that you can store your images on disk. Video cameras are also excellent for recording aspects of your trip, and they are also reasonably priced. With the right software and connections these video records can also be loaded onto disk. Some folks like to make notes in a diary, which is fine, but it’s just as easy to sit down at the end of each day and record your notes on the computer. These notes can also serve

TOURING W
TIPS
e’d all like to head off into the sunset and just keep on touring, but two major factors will determine if this is for you – time and money.
The time available for cruising ‘round the country is purely up to the individual. Family factors, employment factors and even health factors all come into the equation. The essential thing is to allocate your available time so that you maximise the experience and your enjoyment of the journey. For time-limited folks, this may well mean abandoning the dreams of a long, hurried trip around the country, and just selecting a section or region to be explored at your leisure. When time does become available to you, certainly you can take on extended trips, but in the meantime, use the time you have to really enjoy any trip you undertake. For those lucky enough to be able to simply head off and return when it suits, just remember to plan your trip to include even the most obscure little towns, national parks and scenic locations. Some of these out-of-the-way places may well become a highlight of your journey. Money is a genuinely limiting factor for most of us, and there is no way of escaping that fact. However, there are ways of keeping your daily expenditure to a minimum, and this may well allow you to extend your trip.

Saving a buck or six The first and most obvious factor in our travel costs is fuel. Yep, it’s expensive and it’s not likely to get any cheaper, at least in the short term. And the further you get off the beaten track, the more expensive it becomes. Another fuel factor to keep in mind is availability. Some choose to use gas/LPG in their vehicles for the initial cost factor alone. Certainly LPG is cheaper than other fuels, but consumption is higher, thus limiting the range between fill-ups. LPG fuels are also not available everywhere, so if you’re using it, check ahead to make sure fuel can be obtained all along your route. Similarly, premium unleaded fuels are not always available, so again, check ahead. It’s no surprise that most touring vehicles use diesel, with ordinary unleaded fuels in second place. The prime reason is that they are widely available. With long range tanks a diesel can chug away over a long distance, with plenty of grunt for towing a van. But fuel costs aside, there are ways of reducing fuel consumption that will save a dollar.
Drive smarter Lose the lead foot! Learn to drive more smoothly, with less hard acceleration, and don’t punch through the speed limits. It’s amazing what a drop of 5km/hr will produce in the way of fuel consumption savings.

Lose weight Nah, I’m not talking about your body fat index (though these days they reckon we should all shed a few kilos – they’re right, I suppose). Every kilo you cart along with you adds to the amount of fuel your rig consumes. Just because your RV has plenty of cupboards and storage space, it doesn’t mean that you have to stuff them full of gear that you might never use. Careful planning when loading your rig for a long trip will save weight, and fuel consumption. Be selective with the clothes you pack – don’t take the entire wardrobe. Kitchen items should be kept to a minimum. If there are two of you travelling, don’t pack a dinner setting for eight. You’ll only need one frypan, not a full set, and so on. If you’re hopping from van park to van park, it’s not necessary to fill up your on-board water tanks every morning. Every 100 litres of water you cart along is 100kg extra weight your tow vehicle has to lug along. Use common sense and keep your rig’s weight to a minimum.
Maintain your rig On the subject of your rig, remember maintenance. This should be standard procedure anyway, but by servicing and maintaining your entire rig – filters, lubrication, tyre pressures and so on, your fuel costs will be lower.
Downsizing This is not everyone’s cup of tea, but these days many folks are looking to smaller, lighter rigs. A

satisfies your hunting instincts, provides a very healthy meal that you would otherwise have paid for, and the best part is, it’s great fun! Learning to fish could be the biggest money saver of your trip.
Learn to fossick
3 lighter caravan means less energy is required to tow it, and that means a smaller-engined vehicle. This opens up the range of tow cars and avoids the necessity of going up to the V8 diesels required to lug big, heavy vans around. It’s also very practical to have a smaller van in other ways. For example, when you’re travelling up north over winter, which many, many southerners do, you’ll be spending most of your time outdoors, under the awning, eating or just sitting around. The van will be used largely for sleeping, dressing and privacy only. Do you really need all the space available in a big rig?
Drive less Again, this is one of the great money savers. Shorten the overall travel distance of each trip, or lengthen the time allocated for the trip and drive less each day. In the first case, obviously you’ll use less fuel over that shorter distance. In the second case, even though the overall fuel consumption for the trip will not be lessened, the costs will be spread out over a longer time. If you are on a fixed income such as super payments, the shorter daily drives mean less of a hit on that weekly income.
Other money saving hints Aside from fuel, there are plenty of other ways to save a dollar.
Roadside fruit and veggie stalls On many routes the local farmers will put fresh veggies on a roadside stall near their
front gate. Often the prices will be very reasonable, and there’ll be an ‘honesty box’ for the cash. Keep yourself abreast of the cost of veggies in supermarkets and you’ll soon see if you can pick up a bargain. You’ll end up with fresher veggies for less outlay, and you’ll be doing the local farmers a favour.
Independent camping This is a contentious point in some circles, but a few days of independent camping each week can keep you on the road for ages. How? Well, the obvious saving lies in the fact that you’ll save two or three nights’ van park site costs, which is a handy fuel cost offset. There are many campsites around the country where free camping is allowed, provided that your rig is pretty much self-contained.
Dump one day’s luxury Okay, so one man’s luxury is another man’s same old, same old. But, if you replace a $20 bottle of red with a $5 cleanskin a couple of nights a week you’ve picked up $30. At 16 litres per 100km fuel consumption that’s 100km of driving in today’s diesel money. If you dodge a couple of happy hours altogether you’ll save a bit more, but heck, happy hours are fun!
Learn to catch a fish You know, it’s amazing the number of people who have never learned to catch fish, or have some kind of ideological objection to fishing. Humans have been fishing for food for many thousands of years. Catching a feed of fish
There are some folks out there for whom travelling and touring is actually a way to turn a profit! In fact, I’ve met a few folks who take off on an annual trip to known fossicking spots and make a damned good living out of gemstone or gold scratching. There are plenty of tricks to this trade, but they really are fun tricks to learn, and the fossicking gear need not be expensive, nor add too much weight to your rig. There are lots of ‘how to’ books and videos around, and many areas right around the country that allow casual fossicking. But beware! This can become addictive!
Cook smarter There are many occasions where you can cook using other people’s fuel, or just use as little as possible to produce a meal or three, or cook smarter using cheaper materials to produce something that would cost twice as much in a shop. For example, many van parks have camp kitchens with BBQs and all the other works. Use them rather than use up your own gas supplies. After all, the use of those facilities is factored into the camp fees. This also applies to camping in national parks grounds. Often firewood is supplied, and included in the camping fees, so take advantage of that fuel, and save your on-board supply. Another neat trick is to cook up a meal or two in advance and use your on-board freezer. This is even more of a saving if you have one of those thermal cooking pots. In a van park, for example, use the van park’s gas to get a big pot of stew or soup cooking in the morning, then load it into the thermal cooker, and off you go. When you arrive at your next stopover that afternoon, perhaps a neat camp by a river, you have a hot meal ready for you, without using your on-board fuel, and what’s left can be put in the freezer for later.

Full installation facilities. And guaranteed best prices. We service, repair, stock spare parts for these brands
1 Shop smarter Buy bulk if possible and practicable. Before you go, stock up on dry goods that need no refrigeration (cheaper in city markets than in the bush). Stock up on the ‘makins’ of favourite, hearty meals. Avoid canned veggies, soups or stews. They add a load of weight. Aim for fresh veggies where possible, and ‘camp’-made soups and stews are better than the canned variety anyway. Make sure you carry spices such as curry, chilli and mustard powders to add a bit of variety to your meals. We all need to save a dollar on our travels, but with a little planning and common sense, it’s easy to stretch your money just that little bit further.
Some general travel and touring tips Check your weights. Make sure your loaded caravan will not exceed the towing capacity of your vehicle. Do you have a jack? Some vans are not supplied with one. If you are relying on your car jack, make sure it will work successfully on your caravan. When travelling on dirt roads or off road, take two spare wheels for the tow car and two for the caravan. Fire safety is paramount. Ensure your van has a fire extinguisher, a fire blanket and smoke detectors fitted. At each stopover, give the entire rig the once-over. When departing from a van park, make sure water hoses and mains power leads are disconnected.
042
Go Caravan and Camping Guide
Be aware of the width and height of your rig, particularly in van parks or campsites where trees are close or above the road. Include rooftop accessories like air conditioners, hatches and TV antennas when working out the height. If you are travelling in convoy, keep a good distance apart, at least 100m, to allow following traffic to pass. And keep your headlights on. If travelling with a pet, plan your trip to ensure the van parks where you’ll be staying will allow your furry friends to enter. Check the van park listings in this guide before you go. Make sure you have all your pet’s bits and pieces, food and water bowls, lead, waste bags, favourite toys and so on. Take a supply of Dettol in a plastic spray container – a great antiseptic for cuts and so on. Cryovac your meat supply. It will store longer in your fridge. Learn how to make a damper. It’s one of Aussie camping’s best treats – hot damper with butter and golden syrup – outstanding! My recipe is 2 cups of self-raising flour, about ¾ cup of milk or water and a slurp of beer. Mix it up until doughy and cook in a camp oven (ideally) or your caravan oven for about half an hour. (If you’re using a camp oven, remember to put some hot coals on the lid – that’s why it has a raised lip.) Use a piece of shadecloth as a groundsheet in your annex. The accumulated dirt and dust will fall through the holes, making it easier to keep clean. And don’t forget a dustpan and brush.

M
uch of your touring time will be spent on the road, getting from point A to B. While there is nothing particularly onerous about driving an RV outfit, it pays to ensure you get to your destination comfortably and safely.
ROAD
When pulling over on such occasions you should ensure you get your rig well off to the side away from the traffic lane. Use hard surfaced lay bys and parking lanes and avoid pulling over on the dirt. This may throw rocks at the vehicles behind, or destabilise your own rig.
Safety and fatigue Towing Successful towing is very similar to successful driving. All it takes is practice and common sense. If you are unsure of your ability to tow a van or trailer, take a safe towing course before you go. There you’ll learn all the skills required to handle your rig. Then, it’s just a matter of practice.
On road courtesy Most RV rigs will be considerably restricted in performance compared to almost all other traffic. You might feel comfortable tooling along at 20km below the speed limit, but not everyone wants to do that. If you find you are accumulating a ‘tail’ of vehicles behind you, pull over when you can do so safely, and let them past. Do the same for trucks and road trains. These folks have to make a living, so don’t make it any harder for them by slowing them down. Pull over when you can do so safely and let ‘em by.
044
Go Caravan and Camping Guide
Long distance driving can be easy for some and difficult for others. The main thing is, if you are starting to feel tired and weary, pull over and take a break. There are plenty of roadside rest stops for RVs and other cars – but don’t use those reserved just for big rigs. Most rest stops are signposted well ahead.
Wind effects Crosswinds and buffet from trucks can upset the balance of your rig, and in some cases generate what is known as trailer sway. Heavy crosswinds are always going to be an issue for caravanners. Notorious high wind areas are signposted and noted on the various main roads websites. Be aware of these areas and check weather forecasts before travelling. Buffet from trucks, either when you are overtaking them, or vice versa, can largely be negated by setting your rig up correctly. Before you go, make sure your rig is well balanced so that there is neither too little weight on the ball, nor too much. This will make road handling much smoother. A weight distribution hitch helps in levelling out the rig
and also performs an ‘anti-sway’ function. It’s a good idea to see your local caravan dealer or repairer and have him check your rig out for balance. If you do find your rig getting a tail wobble on the road, back off on the accelerator – slowing down usually does the trick. Some folks use their trailer brakes to ‘pull’ the rig straight. The most important thing is to identify a sway problem immediately, and deal with it immediately, before it gets too difficult to control.
Relax Remember, you’re not in a race, so don’t get all het up if a vehicle ahead of you is holding you up. Enjoy the drive and when you do get an opportunity to overtake, do so safely. The object of the exercise is to arrive safely at your chosen location, and enjoy yourself when you get there. Don’t let frustration and road rage detract from your day.

WHERE TO T
here are numerous stopover and camping options available to RV tourers and campers on the road in Australia. Their quality, level of amenities and accessibility will vary, depending on locality.
CAMP?
amenities, and the future of these camps depends upon everyone who camps there doing the right thing. Leave no litter, be self-sufficient, don’t damage the vegetation and don’t run a generator all night. Provided everybody obeys the basic rules for camp etiquette, these camps will remain for travellers to enjoy well into the future.
Caravan parks National parks generally provide basic campsites within their territory. These are usually aimed at those folks camping ‘light’, though some cater for self-contained and self-sufficient RV camping. Many provide pit toilets and BBQs with firewood. Fees do apply, and vary depending on the state, so check the national parks websites for information on individual parks.
Roadside camps Roadside stopover sites are located along most major highways in Australia. They are designed as a stopover, rather than a longer term camp, with a stay limit of usually 24 hours. Many of these highway stopovers are very tidy, with decent toilets and water available. The various State main roads websites will list where these points are located.
Bush camps A good bush camp can be a real pleasure. There are quite a few around Australia, and it’s usually a friendly local at the pub who will put you onto them. Most have few or no
Caravan parks are perfect for either ‘one night stands’ or long term stays, depending on your preference. The level of amenities will vary from park to park, but even the most basic will, or should, have clean toilets and showers in an amenities block. Caravan parks are not all the same. Some are just a cut above bush camps, while others are full-on resorts. The main caravan park chains, such as BIG4, Top Tourist, Family Parks and Aspen Parks are all usually well run, very tidy and are at the upper level in standard. Some people prefer all the whistles and bells, others a more quiet, bushland setting. Van park prices vary right round the country. Influencing factors are the level of amenities, location and season. Most van parks have websites from which you can make your choice. If you are touring with a self-contained RV, a stopover in a van park with a dump point will be helpful. Similarly, if you have kids aboard, a park with a pool, play area and internet access will help. Some parks are genuine resorts, with gym, sauna, shop and so on. Just remember, the more amenities you have in a van park, the higher the site costs are likely to be.
Other factors
To book or not to book The time of year you travel, and the popularity of your destination, will determine if you need to book ahead. Those who enjoy the freedom of the road and just tend to wander along in their own time might find they have trouble finding a site at school holiday times or in more tropical areas where the southern nomads gather in winter.
Pet-friendly If you are travelling with pets, it’s almost essential to check each stopover before you go, to ensure your chosen van park is pet-friendly. Again, this is where websites come in. Most caravan and tourist parks that accept pets are happy as long as the dog is friendly and kept under control at all times. Some parks even have horse accommodation. Pets are not, however, allowed in national parks.
Site size Not all caravan park sites are equal. Many in older parks are designed to accommodate fairly small vans and motorhomes, and the bigger rigs – particularly the fifth wheelers and bus-sized motorhomes – just won’t fit. Another issue with big rigs is turning them around in parks with narrow internal roads. Operators of the larger rigs should also check parks for big, overhanging trees.

Some say the outback is the heart of Queensland, and they may be right. Queensland’s outback has a distinctive character and flavour. It’s difficult to define exactly where the outback begins, but west of a line through St George, Roma, Emerald and Charters Towers would probably cover it. This vast area is home to many towns and villages, each with its own distinct flavour, from tiny Amby with its classic country pub, up to Longreach and the Stockman’s Hall of Fame. Mount Isa is a big, busy city dominated by the huge mines there, while little Torrens Creek is famous for its giant steaks at the roadhouse. There are many scenic pleasures to be enjoyed in this region, from the stunning Carnarvon Gorge country to the vast desert dunes of the interior. Yet you can also be awed simply by the vastness of this wide open country. There are many activities and attractions within this vast region, but as you travel around, take your time and enjoy as much of the outback as you can.
Flinders Highway The Flinders Highway links the tropical coastal city of Townsville with the mining centre of Mount Isa, and eventually leads across onto the Barkly Tableland in the Territory via the Barkly Highway. Travelling this route will take you through modern cities and the tiniest of outpost towns. The Flinders commences in Townsville on the coastline of north Queensland. This is a busy city with mining and tourism as its main industries. There are sandy swimming beaches, restaurants and many attractions in this tropical city. Be sure to take in the views from Castle Rock in the centre of town. As you head west along the Flinders you’ll visit Charters Towers, a busy town with a rich gold mining history and some beautifully preserved buildings, then through tiny Torrens Creek, where the pub serves giant steaks, and on to Hughenden where, like Richmond a bit further on, there are outstanding fossil dinosaur displays. Through Julia Creek you’ll arrive at Cloncurry. Take a tour of the Ernest Henry mine if you have the chance. The Flinders finally ends at the city of Mount Isa, dominated by the massive stacks of the mine. Travelling the Flinders Highway presents a diverse range of experiences and demonstrates just how big a state Queensland really is.
Fraser Island Fraser is an enormous sand island located east of Maryborough and Hervey Bay. In recent times it’s become a ‘must visit’ for the world’s backpackers, with good reason. It’s a magnificent island.
ACTIVITIES Photo courtesy of Tourism Queensland

Fraser is dominated by its long ocean beach, leading right along the eastern shoreline and interrupted only by a couple of rocky headlands. On the western side are the sheltered waters of Hervey Bay. The island is cloaked in magnificent forests and features a host of ‘perched’ lakes filled with gin-clear water. While there are resort-style facilities on the island, camping is the most popular form of accommodation. A four-wheel-drive vehicle is a must to access Fraser, and be aware that the eastern beach is a designated road, complete with speed limits and patrolling police. Fraser Island can be accessed via barges from Rainbow Beach and Hervey Bay, and the main activities are fishing, bushwalking, swimming, birdwatching, and a bit more fishing.
Touring the coast From the NSW border through to Cape York there are innumerable towns, villages and activities and attractions to be seen and enjoyed. The Bruce Highway largely follows the coast north from Brisbane, with side roads darting off to the eastern coastal towns and hamlets. Maryborough is a city loaded with historical buildings and a fascinating history, with Queen’s Park, in the city centre, a green oasis on a warm day. Further north, Childers is a very busy town with neat old pubs, and to the east is beautiful Bundaberg and its famous rum distillery. Further north you’ll find Gladstone, a major energy export port, with Rockhampton not much further on. Rocky is an attractive
Fishing is immensely popular in Queensland. There is something for every type of angler, from chasing marlin on the reef to catching yellowbelly in Beardmore Dam at St George, to catching barramundi in the coastal rivers. Gold fossickers love to poke around areas such as Charters Towers, while gemstone hunters might find their riches in appropriately named towns like Emerald and Rubyvale. Whether you prefer long hikes through the ranges and deserts or quiet strolls along deserted beaches, there are plenty of opportunities. The rainforests of north Queensland are lush and inviting, with some spectacular wildlife. North of the Daintree you might see a cassowary in the wild, or a giant Cairns birdwing butterfly. The coastline is littered with quiet, unspoiled beaches where you can camp, fish or just enjoy the sights and sounds of the surf. Wine buffs will enjoy poking around the Southern Downs and Granite Belt around Stanthorpe, where a thriving wine producing industry has developed. There are many country rodeos staged throughout the state where you can watch the riders on their wild mounts. Visit a country pub. Many are blessed with a fascinating history, such as Rudd’s Pub at Nobby, or the Amby Pub at Amby.
FESTIVALS AND EVENTS At Stanthorpe the Apple and Grape Harvest Festival celebrates and promotes the harvest and lifestyle of the Granite Belt. Innisfail holds the Feast of the Senses, a two week festival that tantalises the five senses of taste, sight, touch, sound and smell with the treasures of the Tropics. The Gladstone Harbour Festival is a week-long celebration that has a humble past but a very exciting future! Over 48 years ago the Gladstone Harbour Festival was born – a one-day celebration to greet the winners of the Brisbane to Gladstone Yacht Race as they crossed the finishing line. The Boulia Rodeo, Races and Campdraft is held every Easter, and is an outback spectacle not to be missed! Rodeo riders from across Queensland compete on the outstanding bucking stock supplied from local stations for some of the biggest prizemoney in the region and shiny Montana buckles to boot! The Hughenden Country Music Festival attracts contestants from all over Queensland, so if you want to compete, or just be part of the audience, come and join the locals at the festival.

Mount Isa
Mount Isa is a big inland city that retains the character of a country town. The mines dominate the skyline, and the tourist centre has a mine tour you can enjoy. The rugged countryside around “the Isa” is spectacular. Enjoy desert walks, catch a barra in Lake Moondarra and have a steak at the Buffalo Club. 5
Innisfail
Located in one of the wettest parts of Australia, Innisfail is a pretty town with some character-filled pubs and a laid back feel. Duck out to the beach at Flying Fish Point, catch a fish in the river or take a walk in the many rainforest regions in the area. South of the town, Paronella Park is an amazing testament to a man’s love for his woman.

The Snowy Mountains
The Warrumbungles
The Snowy Mountains region covers a wide area of Australia’s highest mountain range, as well as the open plains of the Monaro. This is grazing and skiing country. But its main attraction to the visitor is the High Country and Mt Kosciusko, Australia’s highest peak. To the east is the NSW South Coast where you will find peaceful lakes, deserted beaches and a host of activities. Outside the snow season the mountains in spring transform into a wonderland of wildflowers. The Snowy Mountains are also home to Australia’s greatest ever engineering feat, the lakes, dams and hydro power stations formed as part of the Snowy River Hydro Electric project, built in the 1950s.
The striking spires and pinnacles of the Warrumbungle National Park have created sensational bushwalks. The rugged area is one of the few places west of the Great Dividing Range where rainforest can be found. To the east, the town of Coonabarabran is known as the astronomy capital of Australia. The country’s largest observatory, Siding Springs, is located within the ranges and you can go stargazing at the Warrumbungle Observatory. The surrounding towns of Coonamble, Narromine and Gilgandra have plenty of historical attractions of interest to the traveller, including the Coo-ee Centre in Gilgandra and the Aviation Museum in Narromine.
The Murray-Darling
OUTSTANDING REGIONS NSW North Coast From the Hunter region north to the Queensland border, the NSW North Coast is blessed with some spectacular coastal scenery, quaint fishing villages, bustling regional towns and wonderful beaches.

Along the coast a braid of superb rivers greets the sea, where anglers from all over the country gather to cast a line. All forms of boating are popular, from fishing to sailing and canoeing. Some of the country’s best surfing beaches and coastal walks are within easy reach of the coastal villages and towns that grace the coastline.

Go Caravan and Camping Guide
The Midwest The Midwest region offers a wealth of attractions for visitors. The towns of Rylstone and Kandos form the eastern part of the region, serving as the gateway to the natural beauty of Dunns Swamp and the Wollemi National Park. The bustling regional centre of Mudgee is famous for its wines, olives, honey and cheese, with spectacular heritage architecture combining with outdoor cafés and boutique breweries to present a cosmopolitan feel. To the north of Mudgee lies Gulgong, a fascinating town with narrow streets and heritage buildings that bring to life the days of the pioneers and the gold rush. The surrounding highlands of the region produce some of the world’s finest Merino wool.
The Murray-Darling Basin covers 1,061,469 square kilometres or approximately oneseventh (14%) of the total area of Australia (7,692,024 square kilometres). It contains over 40% of all Australian farms producing wool, cotton, wheat, sheep, cattle, dairy produce, rice, oil-seed, wine, fruit and vegetables for both domestic and overseas markets. As Australia’s most important agricultural region, the Basin produces one third of Australia’s food supply and supports over a third of Australia’s total gross value of agricultural production. Along both the Murray and the Darling rivers you’ll find friendly towns with a host of attractions, from museums and wineries to spectacular scenery and fine food. Be sure to take a ride on a paddle steamer from one of the many river ports along the rivers.
Hunter Valley wine and food Throughout June come to the Hunter Valley to taste and smell freshly pressed olive oils, learn the intricacies of cheese making, dine in award-winning restaurants and sample the Hunter’s many delicacies paired with premium local wines. Sample the Hunter Valley lifestyle: dine on local produce paired with a glass of Hunter Valley wine, taste wines from classic Hunter grape families with their makers at intimate Masterclasses, sup at the Winemakers’ Table, learn to cook Hunter-style with Hunter chefs, join behind-the-scenes winery tours, relax at a wine and food fair, partake in a local produce tour, and savour meet-the-makers tastings with cheeses, olives and wines.
Bylong Mouse Races This unusual and fun annual event attracts visitors to the small town of Bylong from all over the countryside. Mouse Race Day consists of an eleven-race program, which includes ten heats, followed by the prestigious Bylong Cup to decide the champion mouse of the day. All mice are provided for the day’s races and are trained to peak for this championship event. All the money raised goes to local charities.
Ironfest Lithgow
The Tamworth Country Music Festival is held over 10 days in January each year, and features the cream of Australian country music performers, along with thousands of performers who just enjoy playing country music. The event culminates in the awarding of the Golden Guitars to the nation’s top performers. This festival is the premier country music event in Australia.
Ironfest is an arts festival with a metal edge, featuring art exhibitions, stalls, live music, street performance, historical re-enactments, (including the Australasian World Jousting Tournament and a colonial battle reenactment with three cannons and cavalry), blacksmithing demonstrations, workshops, busking competitions, automotive displays, educational, historical and technological displays and lots more! Ironfest is a theatrical event that explores humanity’s relationship, through the ages, and into the future, with iron, steel and other metals. The colour and pageantry of medieval jousting, the drama of colonial military action, the exotica of world music and dance, all make Ironfest a sensory feast.
Parkes Elvis Festival
Young Cherry Festival
On the second week in January every year, the town of Parkes in Central New South Wales comes alive to the sights and sounds of Elvis Impersonators. The five day festival features more than 120 individual events.

FIVE TOP SPOTS 1
Lake Mulwala
This man-made lake on the Murray River between the border towns of Mulwala in NSW and Yarrawonga in Victoria is a spectacular location. It’s one of the rare dams where the builders left the trees standing, and they now form the basis of the best Murray cod fishery in Australia. 2
Perry Sandhills
These spectacular red dunes are about 10km west of Wentworth in western NSW and are a reminder of how close the desert is to this part of the state. The dunefield is constantly on the move, and you can see where the marching sand is slowly burying large trees as it moves along. 3
NSW North Coast
Sun, sand, surf and fish. The NSW North Coast is a beautiful and popular region for all those things and much more. Whether you like the high energy resort-style places such as Yamba and Ballina or the laid back fishing village lifestyle of Iluka, the North Coast has it all. 4
South West Slopes
West of the Hume Highway, the towns of Cootamundra, Temora and Junee feature some fascinating history, gourmet food, plenty of activities and attractions and a pleasant climate. The smaller villages within the region have loads of character, friendly locals and some brilliant country pubs. 5
Hill End and Sofala
These two small towns are at the centre of Australia’s gold mining history, and there is still gold to be found in them there hills. These villages have some beautiful old historical buildings all set among rugged hills.
Fishing along the coast and in the inland rivers and lakes is excellent. In NSW waters you can catch everything from marlin in the offshore waters to trout in the highland streams. Fossickers will find plenty of locations, particularly in the northern part of the state around the village of Bingara. Gold hunters need look no further than the historic goldfields around Hill End and Sofala. Museum buffs will be impressed with the historical village in Inverell, while the museum in Gulgong has an immense display of historical items. Wine tasting is popular in the famous Hunter Valley and Mudgee wine regions. History buffs will find heritage buildings and sites throughout the state.

Travellers will always find something different just around the corner in Victoria. The state is steeped in history, filled with fascinating stories and relics of the gold rush, and blessed with the widest variety of scenic environments in Australia. The coastlines are littered with sparkling beaches and rugged cliffs, yet not far away is the vast white bulk of the Snowy Mountains and the immense forests of the High Country. To the north west the traveller can find desert country and to the north the vast plains of the Murray River region.

hroughout Victoria you’ll find a wide range of activities and some of the most interesting tourist attractions in the country. Some of Australia’s finest wines come from the Murray region and wherever you go you’ll find good food and good company. And the good thing is, everything is relatively close together, so you can spend less time travelling and more time enjoying yourself.
OUTSTANDING REGIONS High Country The Victorian High Country is centred on the Australian Alps and around towns such as Beechworth, Bright and Mt Beauty. There are a host of small villages throughout the region, each with its own attraction. The High Country is rich in top class wines, brilliant eateries and overflows with fresh produce, while the locals are ever friendly and helpful. Fresh cheeses, meat, fish and olives are plentiful, particularly in Milawa, the regional breadbasket. The stunning mountains, valleys, lakes and waterways and rich heritage of this region provide an inspiring setting for a host of exciting outdoor activities. In winter, snow brings skiers to the downhill runs and cross-country trails of the region’s resorts. In summer, these areas are

transformed into a favourite destination for bushwalkers, horse riders, cyclists, fishermen, campers and 4WD enthusiasts.
Goldfields The discovery of gold in Victoria’s central region over 150 years ago has left a rich and lasting legacy in almost every town in the Goldfields. Tour the impressive Victorian-era streetscapes of Bendigo and Ballarat with their grand hotels and public buildings or explore the delightful villages such as Maldon, Castlemaine, Heathcote and Dunolly. The region is an arts and cultural haven boasting outstanding galleries. See superb collections of local and European paintings at two of Australia’s finest regional galleries – the Art Gallery of Ballarat, and Bendigo Art Gallery – or visit one of the smaller private galleries and artist studios. Learn about gold rush history at one of the region’s historic attractions. Sovereign Hill, The Eureka Centre and the Central Deborah Gold Mine all offer a fascinating insight into life above and below the ground during the 1850s and 1860s. Take a break from exploring the Goldfields at a stylish local café or restaurant. Eateries make the most of the fine produce of the region, and you can also sample the local wines, olives, apples, cheeses and more, direct from the farm gate or cellar door. Enjoy the outdoors along the 190 kilometre Goldfields Track or wander around a stately garden, many dating back to the 1860s.
Great Ocean Road Victoria’s Great Ocean Road is one of the world’s great drives, following the coast from Torquay in the east on through to Portland in the west. The route winds along the coast, sometimes skirting the very edge of the cliffs, past isolated beaches, through quiet villages and occasionally veering into the forests of the hinterland. The amazing 12 Apostles are limestone outcrops along the coast to the east of Port Campbell (though there are fewer now, thanks to erosion), and all the way west there are striking rock formations, shipwreck sites and historical features. The region is known for its fine food and wines, fabulous coastal walks and shipwreck history.
The Murray Region The Murray River forms much of the border between Victoria and New South Wales, and is the backbone of a major agricultural region, playing a significant role in the development of the country. The river has a fascinating history, particularly with early river transport, and the region is home to a growing wine industry. The river is a playground for travellers, with boating, canoeing, camping and fishing all popular. The many towns along its banks provide a wealth of historical attractions as well as presenting some of the area’s famous fine food and wines. The region extends from its beginnings in the High Country, west through Wodonga, Echuca, Swan Hill and Robinvale

TASMANIA Tasmania is Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s smallest state, yet it is probably the most fascinating of them all. Steeped in early colonial history, blessed with a climate that fosters the production of the most delicious natural foods and with absolutely spectacular scenery, Tassie is a must-visit for tourers and campers.

2 The East Coast
F
rom its striking mountains to the almost impenetrable cool temperate rainforest, significant historical landmarks and amazing coastal scenery, Tasmania provides everything a traveller could wish for. Though small, Tasmania is worthy of an extended visit. There are so many things to see and do here that you’ll probably need a return trip or two just to discover the many gems the island state has to offer.
OUTSTANDING REGIONS Hobart and surrounds With the River Derwent at its heart Hobart combines the tranquillity of a city from a bygone era with the vibrancy of a pocketsized modern metropolis. Hobart’s European beginnings are evident everywhere, from quaint settlers’ cottages to the lofty porches of colonial mansions. Once bustling with whalers and entrepreneurs, 19th-century sandstone warehouses now serve as dockside cafés, artists’ studios and restaurants, where you can enjoy excellent cuisine and fine wines. The area surrounding Hobart is rich with a variety of landscapes and experiences. To the city’s south east, past the Coal River Valley wineries, is the historic town of Richmond. Here, the gaol serves as a prelude to the Port Arthur Historic Site on the Tasman Peninsula. Near Port Arthur you will find thrilling cliff walks and cruises that take you beside 300 metre high sea cliffs and Tasman Island. To the south you’ll find spectacular coastal scenery and some fascinating small towns, with the green bulk of the Southwest National Park looming to the west.

Go Caravan and Camping Guide
The east coast combines spectacular coastal scenery with superb national parks and friendly coastal towns. Visit Mount William National Park with its forester kangaroos, and further south, the Bay of Fires features sandy beaches and massive granite boulders. Just before the small fishing town of Bicheno is the Douglas-Apsley National Park, a landscape of rugged river gorges, waterfalls, and gently flowing rivers. Nearby, occupying a whole peninsula, is spectacular Freycinet National Park, with Coles Bay at its entrance overlooking crystal-clear Oyster Bay, an ideal place for diving, snorkelling, kayaking, boating and fishing. The park is dominated by the pink granite of the Hazards Mountains and best known for the perfect curve of Wineglass Bay. Enjoy superb fare such as crayfish, scallops, oysters, salmon, as well as berries in Swansea, before the journey south and the first sight of Maria Island. The whole island is a national park, free of vehicles. You can stay in the tiny settlement of Darlington, watch the Cape Barren geese or any of the 130 resident bird species, and relax as you learn of the Aboriginal, convict and settler histories.
Launceston and surrounds Launceston was established in 1806 by free settlers. It has fine Victorian buildings from the 1870s and 1880s and elegant contemporary architecture. The unique attraction of Cataract Gorge is a natural wonder only a 15-minute walk from the city centre. Cool climate wines and fine dining are the essence of the new Launceston experience and the city is a perfect base from which to explore the surrounding region. The tidal River Tamar flows north from Launceston to George Town and Bass Strait, past forested hills and pastures, lavender plantations, vineyards, strawberry farms and orchards. Excellent restaurants, superb boutique wineries and simple roadside stalls
ensure every appetite is indulged and this idyllic setting will satisfy other interests too, from history enthusiasts to nature lovers. North east of Launceston is Scottsdale with its Forestry EcoCentre, en route to the popular port and seaside town of Bridport. To Launceston’s west is the pretty town of Deloraine, host every year to Australia’s largest working craft fair.
The North West Tasmania’s north west coast is sprinkled with small, friendly villages, spectacular coastal and forest scenery as well as some amazing local attractions. Look out for farmgate bounty, from handcrafted cheeses to raspberries and other produce fresh from the rich, red soil. Travelling beside Bass Strait your journey takes you from Devonport through Penguin, Burnie and Wynyard to Stanley. The hinterland is farming country, an idyll of gently rolling hills and deep-red volcanic soil where cattle and sheep graze on the fertile pastures. The picture-book appeal of coastal Stanley contrasts with the hillside prettiness of inland Deloraine. Busy Burnie is a thriving city, and Stanley, with its famous and spectacular Nut, is an essential stopover. Further west along the coast is the Arthur River and the Tarkine, Australia’s largest temperate rainforest.
Strahan and the west This is where you travel to see some of the most significant World Heritage areas on earth. As you head into Queenstown, you enter another world, with the road spiralling for more than 90 bends down into what remains of the world’s richest gold and copper mine. When you reach Strahan, on Macquarie Harbour, you can take an exhilarating cruise on the ancient Gordon River; travel by narrow gauge railway across the mountain range; fly in to land on the Gordon River to search out a thousand-year-old Huon pine; or just relax and indulge in great food and wine.
You can explore the area by four-wheeldrive, jet boat, kayak or sail the rivers and waterways and walk the long expanse of Ocean Beach. You are on the edge: from here, more than 11,000 kilometres (6,800 miles) to the west is South America. In Zeehan, once a wealthy silver town, stop for a while and explore the West Coast Pioneers Memorial Museum where you can learn of the town’s rollicking mining past. Further north are the tiny historic towns of Rosebery and Tullah, formerly home to hundreds of miners but now quiet and peaceful. Look out for Montezuma Falls, our tallest waterfall, near Rosebery.
FESTIVALS AND EVENTS Tasmanian Heritage Festival Celebrate heritage and culture at this exquisite festival including exhibitions, tours, displays, workshops and performances. Each year the festival adopts a theme with events focusing on that topic, and often showcasing collections, sites and stories not normally accessible to the public. 2012’s program, with the theme “Innovation and Invention” will again provide enlightening experiences, exhibitions and a diverse range of activities. Historically the National Trust in Tasmania has produced a program of events each year from 1985 to 1995 for the National Trust Heritage Week, changing in 1995 to become what is now known as the Tasmanian Heritage Festival with a state-wide program of events. The festival has continued to grow, seeing 103 events registered in 2009 by historical societies, libraries, schools, government departments, and the private and corporate sector and National Trust properties participating. The statewide festival is the largest celebration of Tasmania’s cultural heritage.
Just the mere mention of chocolate turns heads and that’s what Chocolate Winterfest will do to you. It’s Latrobe’s wickedly delicious festival celebrating all things chocolate. It is no coincidence that the Latin name for cocoa, from which chocolate is made, translates as “food of the gods”. Some cultures even valued chocolate more than gold, and who could blame them. Chocolate Winterfest, Latrobe will indulge, inform, astound, amuse but above all celebrate chocolate as you escape from the bleakness of winter. Be indulged by events individually or successively as you immerse in this chocolate experience. Don’t deny one of life’s pleasures – visit Latrobe on the central northern coast of Tasmania for this unique celebration. Launceston’s Festivale is a three-day celebration of food, wine, arts and entertainment. One of Tasmania’s premier events, it attracts about 40,000 people each year. More than 65 stalls offer patrons the opportunity to taste and savour highly renowned Tasmanian gourmet food and wine amid all the colour and fun of family entertainment, dance, music and street theatre – provided by both local and interstate artists.
Salamanca Markets Enjoy the sights, sounds, flavours, action and colour of one of Australia’s best outdoor markets. Hobart’s famous market at Salamanca Place attracts thousands of locals and visitors every Saturday of the year. They come for the food and music – hot baked spuds, crisp organic vegetables, fresh fruit, the warm aromas of coffee and croissants and buskers singing the blues, stroking a harp or strumming a lively folk song. They come for breakfast and bargains: savour scrambled eggs and orange juice at a Salamanca bistro, then a stroll amongst the hundreds of stalls, meeting friendly people who make or grow what they sell. Salamanca market highlights fine Tasmanian art and craft including hand-worked glass, innovative design in Tasmanian timbers, stylish clothing and bold ceramics. Looking for antiques, collectables, books, curios, trash or treasure? Come and pick up a bargain or two. Saturdays in Hobart focus on the market to start the day or for an afternoon break, Salamanca is the place to be.
Targa Tasmania This is one for the revheads. Over six days of Targa Tasmania, the world’s best touring, sports and GT cars compete in competitive stages on the island’s toughest roads. They travel more than 2,000 kilometres (1200 miles) to challenge the best in their category. Each year up to 300 of the world’s finest cars and drivers compete on Tasmania’s scenic routes and mountain passes. It’s your chance to get close to the best from Porsche, Lamborghini, Ferrari, BMW, Mercedes Benz, Lotus, Ford, Holden, Mitsubishi, Subaru, Nissan and Toyota. You name it and you can see it at Targa Tasmania.
FIVE TOP SPOTS 1
Strahan
On the west coast, Strahan is located on Macquarie Harbour, an immense waterway on the Gordon River. From here tour boats will take you into the magnificent forests and the penal settlement of Sarah Island, and out through Hell’s Gates to the Southern Ocean. 2 Stanley Stanley is a magic little town nestled at the base of The Nut, an amazing flat-topped rock outcrop. Take a ride up onto The Nut by chairlift and enjoy the magnificent coastal views. 3
Launceston
Launceston, on the Tamar River, is Tasmania’s second city and is a busy, bustling place. There are many old yet spectacular timber mansions to be seen, particularly along the western edge of town, and the amazing Cataract Gorge is right there on the edge of town. 4
Richmond
Richmond is a fascinating historic town with some fabulously well preserved timber cottages and stone buildings dating back to the 1830s. The classic Richmond Bridge was convict-built, and the stone walled Richmond Gaol is a must-see. 5
Queenstown
Queenstown is notable as being the eastern terminus for the magnificent and historic railway between that city and Strahan, but it’s perhaps more famous for its lunar-like landscapes in the surrounding hills.
ACTIVITIES Bushwalking is one of the most popular activities for travellers to Tasmania. There are countless walks available, from benign coastal strolls to serious, full-on treks through trackless wilderness. Trout fishing in the highland lakes is among the best in the world. The central lakes are loaded with feisty brown and rainbow trout just waiting to eat a fly. Cool climate wines are a burgeoning industry in Tassie and winetasting buffs will enjoy the pinot noir and iced riesling in the region. History tours over such famous locations as Port Arthur, Richmond Gaol and Sarah Island are a must for travellers. And for food lovers, you can enjoy some of the most amazing food on the planet all over Tasmania, from the cheeses of the north to the magnificent crayfish off the east coast.

SOUTH AUSTRALIA They call South Australia the Festival State, but there’s a lot more to “crow eater country” than mass entertainment. South Australia is blessed with amazing coastlines, harsh deserts, a fascinating history and some of the finest wines in Australia.

T
he populated areas of the state are clustered around the coastlines and the mighty Murray River, but this is a vast state, with an enormous variety of activities and scenic beauty that will fascinate and entertain the most hardened of travellers. It’s certainly a state of contrasts. The forests and lush wine regions of the Barossa and McLaren Vale are a far cry from the stark deserts of the interior, but that contrast is what makes South Oz such a great destination for the travelling camper and caravanner.
OUTSTANDING REGIONS The Barossa The Barossa is arguably the wine capital of Australia. The wine industry is huge here and it’s a place where you can get a real taste for the finer things in life. The Barossa is a relaxed and friendly place, where you can share a drink with the people who actually make the region’s world class wines. You might meet them at the Barossa’s wineries and cellar doors, or you might run into them at restaurants, or on a golf course. There is a distinctly German feel to the region, and here and there you’ll find the flavours of Germany infiltrating into the cafés and restaurants. The countryside around the Barossa is very pleasant, and the region has a
182
Go Caravan and Camping Guide
wide range of interesting attractions, such as historic buildings, museums, craft and art shops.
Yorke Peninsula The Yorke Peninsula is one of South Australia’s favourite holiday spots. It’s very handy to Adelaide and should also be on every traveller’s ‘to do’ list. There is so much to see and do on Yorke Peninsula. You can explore the historical towns of Kadina and Wallaroo, check out an old red biplane in Minlaton or simply wander from town to town along the coastline. At the ‘foot’ of the peninsula you’ll find Innes National Park, blessed with spectacular coastal scenery, beautiful secluded beaches and interesting wildlife. You can also treat yourself to some of the best fishing in the country, simply by dropping a line off one of the peninsula’s historic jetties. And it’s even more fun to catch blue manna crabs with the locals, one of the region’s absolute delights. Yorke Peninsula is the ideal place to go when you deserve a peaceful getaway.
Fleurieu Peninsula This adventure playground is famed for its coastal thrills, quiet beaches, adventurous tours and unspoilt wildlife. It’s a paradise for divers and snorkellers, with dramatic shipwrecks and stunning marine life. And it’s alive with vibrant and creative festivals, events and art. Cruise around the busy towns of Victor Harbor, and Goolwa at the Murray mouth; enjoy the beauty of the many restored historical buildings and delight in the variety of food and wines available.
The Fleurieu Peninsula is home to some of the best produce and vineyards in the country. If you know about wine, you’ve certainly heard of names such as McLaren Vale, Langhorne Creek, and Currency Creek. You can find them all here. Throughout the peninsula there are stunning coastal walks, friendly locals and fascinating towns. It’s a great place to spend some touring time.
Flinders Ranges The Flinders Ranges form the centrepiece of South Australia’s outback. Here you’ll find a dramatic departure from the hectic pace of big cities, but it’s surprisingly accessible. And once you’re there, you’ll experience things that make home look boring. See the majestic natural amphitheatre of Wilpena Pound, a lost world located inside a giant stone crater. Go driving into the deep outback and spend time exploring our legendary desert tracks. Or take a scenic flight over the Flinders Ranges. There are hiking trails, places to fossick for opals, and even a desert golf course with no grass. The locals can give you all the tips you need for an adventure in the South Australian outback. So share a drink with them, and find out about their favourite local spots. The Flinders Ranges has been named one of Australia’s outstanding national landscapes. For walkers, four-wheel-drivers, campers and photographers, it’s a sensational region to visit.
Murray River South Australia’s section of the beautiful Murray River contains plenty of water for you
1
McLaren Vale
If you like your wine and fine food, spend some time in the McLaren Vale area. Among the many wineries and cellar doors in the region you’ll find some absolute gems. The countryside is very pleasant, and the nearby beaches along the shore of Gulf St Vincent are uncrowded and placid. 2
Moonta
Moonta was once the centre of a bustling copper mining industry, and here you can find some beautifully restored limestone buildings of the mining era, explore the old mine workings, visit a brilliant lolly shop and of course try a famous Moonta pasty. 3
Port Lincoln
This historic area is the hub of South Australia’s tuna fishing industry. Visit the bustling harbour and see the tuna fleet, try the freshest seafood anywhere, and enjoy the history of this famous town. The nearby coastline is famed for its scenic beauty and outstanding walking tracks. 4
3 to enjoy a river holiday, despite current low rainfalls throughout Australia. Whether you’re into high-energy watersports like waterskiing or jet boating, or prefer more laidback choices like a leisurely houseboat holiday, or fishing, the wide expanses of the river are the ideal holiday playground for you. The Murray is an Australian icon. More than a hundred years ago, paddle steamers used to venture up and down the length of the river, transporting agricultural produce from riverside townships. While the age of the paddle steamer trade has gone, the river towns, and a few of the steamers themselves, remain – and they’ll offer you a warm welcome. The towns along the Murray are full of attractions and activities, from museums and historical buildings to zoos, wineries and some of the best food in the state. And that’s not to mention the spectacular river scenery you’ll find along the way. The Murray is simply magic.
FESTIVALS AND EVENTS The Penola Coonawarra Arts Festival has become one of South Australia’s leading regional arts festivals. It celebrates the literary and arts heritage of Penola as well as the fine wines of Coonawarra. Riverland Rock N Roll Festival is located in various towns across the Riverland region. If you like to bop ‘til you drop, cruise down to the Riverland in May. The beautifully refurbished historic Burra Town Hall and the school gymnasium will be filled with antiques and collectables for sale for the annual Antiques and Collectables Fair.
Murray Bridge
The area around Murray Bridge is steeped in history, and alive with activities. Walk along the River Murray, enjoy the animals at the nearby zoo or stroll the streets with their lovely old stone buildings. The Lameroo Country Music Festival is held at the Lameroo Memorial Hall, Railway Terrace South. Lameroo is two hours east of Adelaide on the Mallee Highway. Oodnadatta Races and Gymkhana, Australia’s longest running picnic race meeting, celebrates its 122nd event in 2012. Enjoy all the fun of an outback picnic race meeting and country hospitality. The Riverland Balloon Fiesta will again be held at Renmark, on the Murray. Ballooning demonstrations and flights are available. If you’ve never enjoyed the amazing serenity of a hot air balloon flight, this is your chance. The Great Australian Outback Cattle Drive is the experience of a lifetime. It’s the ultimate outback holiday. Climb into the saddle to be part of all the splendour and romance of historic cattle drives.
ACTIVITIES Foodies can enjoy the variety of flavours available all through South Oz. Try a freshly caught crab at Ardrossan, a Bee Sting cake in the Barossa, a pastie at Moonta, or a fish ‘n chips feed at Goolwa. There are many opportunities for wine tasting. The Barossa region is well known, as is McLaren Vale, Penola/Coonawarra and Langhorne Creek. There are opportunities for bushwalking throughout the state, with the outback regions and the coastlines of the Yorke, Fleurieu and Eyre peninsulas offering exceptional walks.
5
Goolwa and the Murray Mouth
The end of the line for Australia’s greatest river, Goolwa is an interesting town with its focus squarely on the river. See the riverboats at the wharf precinct, soak up some history at the museum and visit the mouth of the Murray and the Coorong.
Fishing opportunities are plentiful, with jetty fishing, surf fishing and offshore fishing options available. Try fishing for snapper out of Whyalla, or catching crabs along the eastern coast of the Yorke Peninsula. Camping is very popular in all the state’s national parks. You’ll also find many campsites along the coast and along the Murray River. Riverboat cruises are available at various locations along the Murray, such as Murray Bridge and Renmark. Take a short cruise on an historic steamer, or an overnight cruise on one of the dedicated cruising riverboats.

WESTERN AUSTRALIA Western Australia, the largest state in Australia, is blessed with some of the most spectacular scenery and experiences available anywhere on the planet. Its sheer size just begs to be explored, from the forests and beaches of the south west to the magniďŹ cent coral reefs and sea life of the mid north.

Y
ou can tour the wilderness of the north west, with its magnificent coastal scenery and fjord-like cliffs, or head west into the real heart of the desert for a truly amazing experience. Explore the living history in the towns of the Wheatbelt, or visit the pristine beaches in the far south. Wherever you choose to go, you’ll be fascinated by the scenic beauty of this vast state.
OUTSTANDING REGIONS The Coral Coast Beaches, exotic marine life, national reserves and the bluest ocean you’ll see anywhere in the world, can all be found in Australia’s Coral Coast. This coastal region commences at Cervantes, with the unique rock formations of the Pinnacles, and stretches as far north as Exmouth, home of the internationally renowned Ningaloo Reef. This amazing area is also great for diving and fishing all year round with a variety of spectacular reefs and marine life, white sandy beaches and warm turquoise waters. Western Australia’s Coral Coast is one of the few places in the world where you can swim with the world’s largest fish, the whale shark. Inland is just as exciting, as carpets of wildflowers burst into colour during the flowering season. The region offers amazing experiences and interactions with a variety of marine life, including meeting the dolphins of

Road, and Lake Argyle, a mass of water large enough to be classified as an inland sea.
The Outback
The South West
Images of the vast clear skies and theatrical landscapes of the Golden Outback region will stamp themselves forever in your mind’s eye. This is the place for true outback adventure. Driving becomes an activity in itself rather than a means to an end, and camping under the stars is a mystical experience. Look for tours offering authentic Aboriginal encounters in and around the mining towns and settlements built by gold rush pioneers. Or simply get into the laid back atmosphere of rural life among grandiose heritage buildings, friendly pubs and hospitable farmstays. The remote desert country is immense, silent and spectacular.
Australia’s South West offers some of the most varied travel experiences in Western Australia. Discover towering forests and whale watching, fine food and wine, and spectacular surfing beaches. Margaret River and its surrounds are a popular destination offering world class wineries, top surfing and fun family holidays. Locals head here in winter too, responding to the lure of cosy log fires, brisk walks along the beach, horse riding through the bush and mountains of delicious local produce. A huge draw for scuba divers is the HMAS Swan dive wreck, also visible to snorkellers from above the ocean surface. If you don’t fancy a dive, the Busselton Jetty and Underwater Observatory provides an alternative view of the amazing and colourful world under the water.
The North West Region Australia’s North West is one of the world’s last true wilderness areas and home to the vast Kimberley region. The seaside town of Broome forms the southern gateway to this spectacular region and features the magnificent Cable Beach, a 22km stretch of soft white sand and warm turquoise waters. From Broome, venture into red-earth country and experience an authentic Aussie outback adventure by four-wheel-drive, take a scenic flight over extraordinary rock formations and magnificent waterfalls, or cruise through the inland waterways that permeate the region. Highlights of Australia’s North West include the Bungle Bungle Range, the rocky landscapes of Karijini National Park, the many ancient gorges featured along the Gibb River
FESTIVALS AND EVENTS Broome’s Shinju Matsuri, or Festival of the Pearl, rekindles the excitement and romance of the city’s early days as a world renowned producer of pearls and pearl shell. Japanese, Chinese, Malays, Koepangers, Filipinos and Europeans flocked to Broome from the late 1800s to be a part of this prosperity. Dragon boat racing, a float parade through China Town and a family mardi gras make for an exciting event. Viva Bunbury! is the city of Bunbury’s contribution to Bunbury Carnival, a week of events built around the Bunbury Cup. It’s a free street party/concert in Victoria Street that traditionally features two hot Latin bands.

The Nullarbor
Aside from being the location of the Eyre Highway, one of Australia’s great drives, the Nullarbor is a magical place, with a stark beauty unlike anywhere in the country. The legendary flat, treeless plains stretch as far as the eye can see and further west, the long, long straight road into Balladonia makes one yearn for a bend in the road! 2
Albany
Albany is a rare city, combining the bustle of the west with a fascinating history of the days of whaling. The coastline is truly spectacular and the harbour, with its myriad bays and headlands, is a wonderful sight. 3
Broome
Broome is a fascinating town with a truly unique culture centred on the pearling industry. Broome adds the colour of the old pearling luggers to a modern pearling industry, and of course Cable Beach is just as famous as Bondi to we travellers. 4
Get ready to rock when Northam and the Avon Valley burst into life with the Wheatbelt’s most hyped music event: the Wild Oats Music Festival and Ute Muster. Capel Fest event is a family-friendly festival jam-packed with entertainment all day, live street theatre, and over one hundred stalls displaying a variety of products. There is a sideshow alley, log chopping, historic cars on display and an array of art from local and regional artists. The Albany Maritime Foundation conducts the annual Festival of the Sea (FOS) on Easter Saturday and an Easter Sunday Market Day. FOS is a fun, informative and delicious event catering for mums, dads and children of all ages. There’s also plenty of family fun at the Pemberton Autumn Festival, providing a great day out for everyone. Entertainment, rides, local events and culinary delights specialising in marron are available throughout the day. If you like fishing, make sure you participate in the Shark Bay Annual Fishing Fiesta, organised and run by the Shark Bay Fishing Club Incorporated. This annual fiesta runs for one week every May with lots of different events for gents, ladies and juniors. The various categories suit beach, boat or jetty anglers and even the keen fly fisher. The Argyle Diamonds Ord Valley Muster is a community celebration of the East Kimberley region, highlighting its cultural diversity, stunning landscape, and friendly country hospitality. It began in 2001 as a simple one night affair – a dinner in the outback for local businesses – but the Ord Valley Muster has grown at an incredible pace, and now features over 50 events across an exciting two-week festival.
Meekatharra’s annual Meeka Outback Festival is an entertaining bush event held on the Queen’s birthday weekend in September. The festival has been developing over the last seven years, attracting people from all over Western Australia to share Meeka’s unique cultural mix and hospitality.
ACTIVITIES Bushwalking is a favourite pastime in the west, particularly around the southern coastline. The remote national parks with stark coastal scenery and secluded beaches offer fabulous walking and hiking opportunities. Four-wheel-driving is immensely popular, whether it be a “soft” adventure in the outskirts of the desert, or the challenges and excitement of long range trips along the Canning Stock Route or the Gibb River Road. Fishing is also very popular – and very rewarding – in the west. Anglers chase large salmon from the beaches of the south, perhaps a trout or two in the forest highland streams of the south west, or the myriad species available in the warmer northern waters. Wine tasting is essential for visitors to the Margaret River region. This area has some of the country’s finest wines and a host of wineries and cellar doors to choose from. Foodaholics will love the southern portion of the state, with gourmet delights to be found in places like Bunbury and Margaret River. Learning about Aboriginal culture is a highlight of any Western Australian visit, particularly in the north, where the traditional owners will explain their history and culture on guided tours.
Shark Bay
For lovers of marine life, and fishermen of all persuasions, Shark Bay is an amazing location. The vast, shallow waters hold a wide array of fascinating marine creatures, with Monkey Mia legendary for its wild dolphins that interact with visitors. 5
Bunbury
Bustling Bunbury is a booming city with loads of attractions for travellers. Here you can visit the local wild dolphins, enjoy a cosmopolitan atmosphere at the many cafés, and enjoy views of the Indian Ocean and across Koombana Bay from the old lighthouse. Bunbury is a great jump-off point from which to explore WA’s south western region.
In the spring the west comes alive with colour as the wildflowers bloom across the desert and the dry lands. There are dedicated wildflower tours available for those who wish to enjoy these wonderful bursts of colour in the landscape.

n the north, the capital, Darwin, is a hustling, bustling, booming city – all in a wonderful tropical setting. To the east are Kakadu National Park and Arnhem Land, remote and magnificent, while further south along the Stuart Highway is the regional centre of Katherine. West of Katherine the Victoria Highway takes you to Victoria River and the colourful town of Timber Creek. Heading further south along the Stuart are many small towns, including Mataranka with its hot springs, and Three Ways, where the Barkly Highway heads across a vast tableland. Passing through the desert country you’ll visit Tennant Creek before arriving at Alice Springs, the heart of the Territory. From here the magnificent Uluru-Kata Tjuta and the MacDonnell Ranges present the best of the Territory experience.
OUTSTANDING REGIONS The Katherine Region The Katherine region is a fabulous base for travellers to enjoy some real Territory-style adventure. Though on the main north-south highway, it remains a genuine country town. Katherine sits on the banks of the Katherine River, which flows down through the remarkable Katherine Gorge in Nitmiluk National Park. Here there are gorges, rivers and waterfalls, and dramatic scenery. The region surrounding Katherine provides an opportunity for bushwalking, fishing, canoeing and camping. Four-wheel-drivers will love this region. Aside from the spectacular gorge scenery, the region also features savannah grasslands and wide, open spaces. Katherine is a ‘must visit’ for anyone touring the Territory.

Go Caravan and Camping Guide
Darwin, the Territory’s tropical capital, is situated on the shores of Darwin Harbour. It has a relaxed, contemporary feel and serves as an outstanding base from which to explore the surrounding region. The world-renowned Kakadu National Park is virtually right on Darwin’s doorstep, with Litchfield National Park, the Tiwi Islands and Arnhem Land all close by. Darwin’s colourful history and proximity to South East Asia has made it one of Australia’s most culturally diverse cities. Today, more than 50 nationalities make up its population, including the area’s traditional landowners, the Larrakia Aboriginal people.
Tennant Creek Tennant Creek sits on the Explorer’s Way, 500 kilometres north of Alice Springs and 1000 kilometres south of Darwin. The town is flanked to the east by the Barkly Tablelands – a huge expanse of land that supports some of Australia’s premier outback cattle stations. Tennant Creek is also known as the Territory’s heart of gold; a reference both to the friendliness of its people and the area’s gold mining history. Australia’s last gold rush took place here in the 1930s, and there are plenty of opportunities to learn about it at attractions around the town. Visitors can even try fossicking for their own gold. Prior to the gold rush era, Tennant Creek’s first European residents were workers on the Overland Telegraph Line, which established a communication link between Australia and the rest of the world. The Telegraph Station was built in 1872, and this historical collection of stone buildings can be explored today. Aboriginal culture is strong in Tennant Creek. The traditional land owners of this area are the Aboriginal Warumungu people, and they recognise a number of sacred sites in the area, including the region’s most famous landmark – the Devil’s Marbles – about 100 kilometres
south of the town. They believe that these are the eggs of the Rainbow Serpent, a creature of a Dreamtime story. The Nyinkka Nyunyu Culture Centre in Tennant Creek is an awardwinning Aboriginal attraction that showcases the people’s stories and art.
Alice Springs Alice Springs was established by the early explorers and remains as the centre of activity in this region. From the early 1900s, the vast desert of Central Australia was explored for its promise of rubies and gold. Today, north of Alice is an adventure travel destination where visitors can still fossick for gems and explore the Australian desert while trekking, camping or four-wheel-driving. To the north-west, along the Tanami Track, and south of Alice Springs in the Simpson Desert, the art styles and stories of the Aboriginal people give meaning to the surrounding landscape. The most well-known natural highlights of Central Australia are the East and West MacDonnell Ranges that straddle Alice Springs and run for 223 kilometres. And of course Australia’s most famous natural feature, Uluru, or Ayers Rock, is close by. Visitors to the NT’s Red Centre can enjoy views of dramatic scenery, bushwalking, swimming, four-wheel-driving or quadbike riding. The heart of Central Australia is comprised of cavernous gorges, boundless desert landscapes, remote Aboriginal communities and a charming pioneering history.
Kakadu and Arnhem Land Kakadu National Park and Arnhem Land comprise more than 110,000 square kilometres in the north-east corner of the Northern Territory. The landscapes of Kakadu and Arnhem Land are diverse and are perfect for an outback adventure, and to experience Aboriginal culture. For more than 40,000 years,

Darwin
Ahh, Darwin. It’s one of the most vibrant cities in Australia. Here you can experience a genuine melting pot of cultures, with a wide variety of cuisines available. It’s a sensational place to spend some time preparing for the rest of your Top End travels. 2 Kakadu National Park You simply cannot visit the Northern Territory without experiencing the magnificence of this World Heritage national park. It is easily accessed via the Arnhem and Kakadu highways and is a delight for walkers, campers and travellers. 3
3 the people of Kakadu and Arnhem Land have lived in harmony with nature and their history is indelibly bound to the land. Kakadu National Park is the largest national park in Australia. It contains one of the highest concentrated areas of indigenous rock art sites in the world. Wholly Aboriginal-owned, Arnhem Land is known for its strong culture, towering escarpments, wild coastline, savannah woodlands, lush wetlands and prolific wildlife. The region offers an immense range of activities and experiences for the traveller. You can wet your line in Kakadu and Arnhem Land, see saltwater crocodiles in the wild, or climb up the enormous, rugged escarpments that frame this area. Then there are plenty of challenging four-wheel-driving tracks just waiting to be conquered. The wildlife is simply amazing here and the colours of the landscape will stay with you forever. One of the best ways to enjoy this spectacular region is to walk. Bushwalking is a delight. There are many established trails throughout the region that lead to some of its most impressive scenery including vistas, waterfalls, plunge pools, Aboriginal art sites, wetlands and other environments.
FESTIVALS AND EVENTS The Darwin Festival is the city’s major cultural festival, held each year in August. This event celebrates the best in Aboriginal, national and international talent in music, theatre, comedy and dance performances and visual art displays. Don’t miss the annual Beer-Can Regatta on Mindil Beach, where locals compete ferociously for the honour of building the most sea-worthy vessel from aluminium cans. The Borroloola Barra Classic is just one of the Territory’s fishing events. It’s a very popular event and competitors chase the magnificent barramundi that lurk (they hope) in the McArthur River.
Katherine Gorge
Situated in Nitmiluk National Park adjoining the southern boundary of Kakadu, Katherine Gorge is an immense scar worn through the escarpment over eons by the Katherine River. There are many walking trails through the area and boat and canoe tours are available. The Katherine Country Music Muster includes a pub crawl, ‘big brekky’ and busking competitions. Other festivals celebrate the region’s gold mining history, like the Pine Creek Goldrush Festival, and the strong indigenous culture of the area is highlighted at the Merrepen Arts Festival and the Barunga Festival. The Henley-on Todd Regatta is a boat race with a difference. It’s run on the dry river bed of the Todd River in Alice Springs. Some of the ‘craft’ are simply amazing, and the event is full of fun and excitement.
ACTIVITIES Barra fishing Barramundi fishing is one of the most popular activities in the Territory. Throughout the coastal and riverine regions there are guides who will take you to where the big barra lurk. If you are unlucky enough to miss out on a barra, the Territory’s waterways are simply teeming with other species.
Crocodile spotting The saltwater crocodile is one of the most feared predators in the world, and there are plenty of them in the Top End. Guides will take you out onto waters where these big, wild saurians live and hunt, and can even feed them for you. Alternatively, you can visit places such as Crocodylus in Darwin, where you can see some really enormous crocs – from behind stout fences.

Uluru-Kata Tjuta
This iconic natural feature is in fact two distinct rock formations – the mighty Uluru, or Ayers Rock, and Kata Tjuta, or The Olgas, as it was known. There are many walking trails available here, as well as some strategically placed viewing platforms. Catching the light change on Uluru as the sun sets is one of nature’s magnificent sights. 5
Borroloola
Borroloola is off the beaten track somewhat, east of Daly Waters via the Carpentaria Highway, but it will provide a genuine Territory experience for campers and, in particular, anglers. The McArthur River has some exceptional fishing, particularly where it joins the Gulf of Carpentaria. Take a boat along, though, and keep an eye out for crocs!
Going ‘bush’ Bushwalking is perhaps the best way to enjoy the delights of the Top End’s myriad national parks. The natural beauty of the Territory is breathtaking and there are many options available to those prepared to take a hike.
Aboriginal culture Much of the Territory is owned and operated by the traditional owners, and their history and culture is a must to experience. There are many cultural centres throughout the Territory displaying traditional artefacts and artworks, presenting an insight into this ancient culture.
