Discover the lesser-known corners of Australia with our latest stories. We travel by road through the outback, along the coast and across the bush, sharing real moments from places often left off the map. Join us as we uncover hidden gems, quiet campsites and the kind of adventures that happen when you wander off the main road.
If you’re planning a road trip through Outback Queensland, South Australia, the Northern Territory, Victoria or New South Wales, you’ll find plenty of stories from the tracks and towns along the way. From remote creeks and gorges to small country pubs and station stays, these posts share the people and places that make travelling off the main road worth it.
Port Augusta: Where the Desert Meets the Sea
Port Augusta’s more than a pit stop. Between the gulf and the desert, we found Spear Creek sunsets, station stays, and outback landscapes that blend grit and beauty in equal measure.
Mining Tales and Mateship
We rolled into Moonta with good friends and found history, sandstone charm, and a camp full of laughs. Exploring the old copper mine and eerie slime pits gave us a glimpse into South Australia’s mining past.
Two Wheels Through Innes
Riding through Dhilba Guuranda–Innes National Park gave us windswept cliffs, hidden coves, and open coastal roads — the kind of day that sticks with you. Our motorbikes made it even better.
Southern Yorke Surprises
Coastal charm, striking silo art, and a slice of history! Our loop through Stansbury, Edithburgh and Wool Bay gave us quiet beaches, quirky sculptures, and a deeper look at South Australia’s hardworking past.
Crabs, History and Sunsets
Ardrossan turned on the charm with peak crab season, a warm bakery welcome, and a fascinating museum visit. We ended the day on the jetty at sunset, soaking up this friendly coastal town’s relaxed rhythm.
Postcard from Port Willunga
Port Willunga gave us the perfect blend of beach time, wine country rides, and coastal charm. From vineyard-hopping on the bikes to salty swims and surreal art, this stay was all about slowing down and soaking in.
Coastal Turns and Island Walks
From the wild coastline of Cape Nelson to the peaceful shores of Meningie and dramatic boulders of Granite Island, this leg was full of quiet surprises, big skies and salt-sprayed walking trails worth the detour.
