Skytrek; an incredible day in the Flinders

Willow Springs Station in South Australia’s Flinders Ranges is home to the self-guided off-road track, Skytrek. While the track isn’t extremely challenging, there are steep climbs and descents and some tricky bits. You’ll need a vehicle with low range, and some off-roading experience to enjoy the drive. Skytrek loops out into the heart of the […]

Ladakh

I caught my first glimpse of snow-capped peaks and desolate valleys, as the plane approached Leh Ladakh. Ladakh is a province in the North West of India, next to the disputed area of Kashmir. It has a rich history as an ancient trade hub and is a fantastic fusion of different cultures and religion. Predominantly […]

Kakadu

Breathtaking waterholes, abundant wildlife, diverse landscapes and rich cultural history; Kakadu has it all. At 20,000 square kilometres, Kakadu is Australia’s largest National Park. It includes Ramsar wetlands, stunning escarpments, permanent freshwater pools and tidal flats and offshore islands. Home to Aboriginal people for over 65,000 years, these days Kakadu is jointly managed by the […]

Wild Cobourg Peninsula

The road to the Cobourg Peninsula begins at the northern […]

Our first destination was Wanuway (Cape Arnhem), which many referred to as the jewel of East Arnhem Land. On big travel days, we always like to get through some kilometres early before […]

A journey of remote deserts and the remarkable Pintupi Nine

Shortly after touching down in Alice Springs, I joined the Diamantina Touring Co. LandCruiser convoy. We were heading into the heart of the desert and were off to meet the Pintupi Nine. The commute to the quiet tracks saw us whizz by Uluru and along the Great Central Rd to the Sandy Blight Junction Road […]

Sea Kayak Bass Strait

Around this time, a few years back, we had just pulled into Wilson’s Promontory in Victoria, the first stop on our attempt to sea kayak bass strait. It had been a long day of paddling, but the trip to the start point, with four sea kayaks from Perth, had been much longer. My friends Hew, […]
