We hadn’t planned to rush, but when the forecast showed 25mm of rain heading for Souther Queensland, we knew we had to move.

Stonehenge might not be on every traveller’s list, but it should be. It’s a true outback experience—laid-back, welcoming, and a reminder of why we love hitting the road.

We rely on highways for travel, but for many people living remotely, these same roads double as runways that could save a life.

Quilpie might be a small town, but it delivers big when it comes to outback charm and incredible views.

Charleville keeps proving there’s more to the outback than just red dirt. A date farm in the desert and caves tucked away on a cattle station—two places we won’t forget anytime soon.

Breaking down is never fun, but if it’s going to happen, better in town than out in the middle of nowhere.

Chinchilla Weir is an ideal stop if you’re looking for an easy, no-fuss camp with a beautiful setting.

If you’re passing through, make sure to visit the Miles Historical Village Museum—you’ll leave with a much better understanding of the area’s past.

This small town on the banks of the Balonne River had already captured our hearts during our first stop, and this time, we were ready to explore even further.

We explored the world’s largest sand island with K’gari Explorer Tours, hitting all the highlights in one unforgettable day. Clear lakes, lush rainforest, wild beaches and even a scenic flight over the island.

Beach strolls, market browsing and a breathtaking afternoon spotting whales off K’gari. Hervey Bay gave us sun, salt air and sea life in spades. It’s a relaxed spot that delivered more than we expected.

A deep dive into one of Australia’s most iconic distilleries—Bundaberg Rum. We toured the molasses-scented halls, learned the secrets behind the spirit, and discovered just how much Bundy is hiding on site.

We spent five relaxed days in Rockhampton with favourite brunches at Riverston Tea Rooms, exploring the Railway Museum, and soaking up the creative buzz at the Art Gallery. A perfect blend of history, art, and wide-open skies.
