Vast clear skies and theatrical landscapes. True outback adventures, authentic Aboriginal encounters and visits to settlements built by gold rush pioneers, unique station and farm stays, or perhaps walk on some of Australia’s whitest beaches, Australia’s Golden Outback is a region of rich and stirring contrast.
Images of the vast clear skies and theatrical landscapes of the Golden Outback region will stamp themselves forever in your minds 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.
Four-wheel drivers will relish the outback driving adventure of the Canning Stock Route, Gunbarrel Highway, Outback Way, Kingsford Smith Mail Run, and Golden Quest Discovery Trail to name a few.
Australia’s Golden Outback. Out of the way. Out of this world.
