When touring on a 4wd campervan, all you need is a blanket to sleep under the stars. There are hundreds of caravan parks you can stop to, the choice is yours.

Motoring is a delightful way to see Australia, giving travellers flexibility and independence. You can travel as you please, explore places near and far, and stop whenever the mood takes them. Australia is serviced by a vast network of highways and roads, ranging from broad freeways to well-worn dusty tracks. A 4WD campervan is the ideal vehicle for motoring, which able to deal with the worst road conditions with ease. There are many roads that can be explored all year round, and they all pass through majestic country and lead to exciting destinations.

Travelling in a 4WD campervan allows ease of catering which adds that little bit more comfort for extended tours, without having to spend money on expensive accommodation. A 4wd campervan is fitted with all your required necessity; convertible beds, water tank, extra storage space and gas stove.

Camping grounds can be located in most towns and resort areas along highways and near the ocean. Although the standards vary from one caravan park to another, they all provide the basic amenities of electricity, hot and cold showers, toilets and laundry. However, during the busy holiday period you should make bookings in advance.

Outback Motoring

Australia’s size and remoteness deter many people from exploring it. However, properly set up and equipped, and armed with common sense and a little background knowledge, every intending traveller can explore the country’s huge open space.

If you intend travelling in the outback, planning ahead is vital, for it is possible to travel in some sections of the Australian outback and not see another vehicle or person for several days. It is possible to travel in some areas of the outback in a 2WD vehicle, but it is safer and much more practical to do so in a 4x4 vehicle suited to off-road conditions.

Since driving conditions in the outback vary greatly, you should always consider the right 4x4 hire for your travel. 4x4 rental are the best when it comes to soft sand, bulldust and mud, and crossing a creek of stream.

Critical rules that you need to pay attention when you are motoring in the outback:

• Check intended 4x4 routes carefully
• Check the best time of year to travel
• Check your load; keep it to a minimum
• Check ahead of local road conditions, weather forecasts and fuel availability
• Check that you have essential supplies: water, food and fuel
• Don’t forget your detailed maps
• Respect Aboriginal sacred and cultural sites, and heritage buildings and pioneer relics
• Protect native flora and fauna; take photographs not specimens
• Follow restrictions on the use

Planning Ahead is Important!

There is so much to of Australia to see and so many ways to see it. Today, even the most remote sections of this vast continent are accessible, particularly to 4x4 vehicles designed for use on the bush tracks and unmade roads.

For some, exploring Australia will mean touring the made highways and staying in motels. Others will tow their accommodation with them on a 4x4 camper. Others will opt for a mobile home with sleeping and cooking facilities, and yet other group will choose to be the true adventurers, will load a tent on top of the 4x4 hire and go bush. In all cases, some careful planning will enhance the journey immeasurably.

As a traveller, you need to plan ahead:

• Find advance information on the 4x4 area you are going to explore
• When to go; find the best time to explore in your 4x4
• Plan which way to go; plan your 4x4 route and itineraries
• Locate where you would like to stay and campout in your 4wd
• Find the right 4x4 hire that really suits your budget
• When you book your 4x4, make sure you are covered with the right insurance
