The final few days in Australia was spent at one of the most spectacular National Parks in the country, Cradle Mountain! We had beautiful weather for some epic walks and views, not to mention lots of encounters with wombats! An amazing way to end our trip in Australia! To New Zealand!
Tasmania is Australia’s virtually untouched state. Beautiful scenery, plenty of convict history, aurora Australis and scenic walks in abundance! Certainly a brilliant way to end our trip in Australia!
We return to one of our favourite National Parks for more walks, amazing views, and wombats!
The Great Ocean Road! A bucketlist trip, that thousands of people flock to each year. The truly spectacular coastline is scattered with lone islands and rocks formed by the sea. The iconic Twelve Apostles looks beautiful at sunset.
From Adelaide we made our way to Mount Gambier and then the Grampians! The Grampians are a famous mountain range between Adelaide and Melbourne, with beautiful views, waterfalls and rock formations! A perfect route to reach the Great Ocean Road!
The last leg of our road trip through the centre of Australia! We visit Coober Pedy, famous for it’s underground living and opal! We get up close and personal with a baby joey kangaroo, and check out a large salt lake – Lake Eyre!
The iconic Uluru. A bucketlist experience in the middle of the Australian outback. It was fascinating to learn some of the Aboriginal stories and how significant Uluru is to the Mala people. A once in a lifetime experience.
The second stop in the Red Centre was Kata Tjuta, the perhaps overlooked sister to Uluru. The amazing natural group of red domes is truly something to behold. We trekked through the middle of Kata Tjuta on the Valley of Wind circuit and had some truly amazing views of phenomenon. An amazing day.
The start of our trip around the Red Centre, and what better place to start than Kings Canyon. The huge, red canyon is something to behold, with stunning views, beautiful walks and even the Garden of Eden spring at the bottom!
The long trip South from Darwin. We had three days to go over 1,000km – but we made the most of our trip. The highlights included the Devils Marbles, Katherine Gorge and the Mataranka Thermal Springs!
