Baxter Cliffs

The Baxter Cliffs are a stunning section of the Great Australian Bight. This is a remote part of Australia, accessible by narrow and rocky tracks. With the WA border closed, I’d never seen the Eyre Highway across the Nullarbor so empty. I was travelling solo on this trip and this only amplified the quiet. It […]

Effortless Kangaroo Valley Canoe Camping

Our Kangaroo Valley canoe camping trip wasn’t an epic adventure, but it sure was a fun overnighter. I was visiting Trav from WA, and instead of a night at the pub, we loaded some gear in his ute, grabbed some supplies en-route, and headed for the put in. Kangaroo Valley is about 2.5 hours from […]

Victoria’s Spectacular High Country

The High Country is either a favourite or high on the bucket list for almost every off-road traveller. This trip, my first to the High Country, was last year and fire closures meant our best-made plans were in the wind. I was travelling with my Victorian-based friends Kris and his son Will and Rae and […]

Canoeing the Snowy River

A multi-day paddling adventure with friends down the mighty Snowy River; it’s the stuff of childhood dreams. I knew of the Snowy River long before I ever set foot in Australia, and I had longed to paddle it for many years before I finally did. Spring is an excellent time of year for it with […]

Sea Kayaking WA’s Cape to Cape

It’s hard to believe just weeks ago, my buddy Rob and I were sea kayaking along the Margaret River coastline on a mini-expedition enjoying the kind of freedom that due to COVID-19 is currently only in our dreams. Many of you will have heard of the surfing in the Margaret River region, or at least […]

Stunning Palm Valley in NT’s Finke Gorge NP

As we looped our way through the West MacDonnell Ranges and headed east toward the start of our Hay River Track trip, we made the side trip into Palm Valley. Palm Valley lies within the Finke Gorge National Park; the […]

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 […]

Whitewater Kayaking in 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

Cahill’s crossing is the gateway to the Cobourg Peninsula. At low water levels, it’s a doddle. When the enormous tides of the area roll upstream it becomes a vehicle swallowing and saltwater crocodile-filled nightmare. It has a reputation as one of Australia’s most notorious crossings! The road to the Cobourg Peninsula begins at the northern […]
