WHERE: The Oodnadatta Track is located in the north of South Australia in between the towns of Marla and Marree, and is easily accessible from the Stuart Highway or by travelling through the stunning Flinders Ranges. Initially set up as the overland telegraph line during the 1800s, travelling the Oodnadatta track provides visitors with an […]
Having first visited Queensland’s Cape York in the early 1990s, there’s little doubt the Old Tele Track run up to the tip of Cape York still provides some challenges today, just as it did on that first trip all those years ago. Taking a trip to the tip of Cape York is far from boring if […]
WHERE: Cape York is one of Australia’s last frontiers and located in far north Queensland. So this isn’t a destination you want to hurry, as in fact, the Tip of Cape York is almost 1,000 kilometres from Cairns. When this magnificent region has such a diverse landscape, adventure seekers will definitely be spoilt for choice […]
WHERE: The Kimberley is located in the far north west of Western Australia and covers more than 420,000 square kilometres. In comparison, this region is bigger than Germany and nearly twice the size of Victoria, but has a population of less than 50,000 people. The main entry points to the Kimberley are from the towns […]

When it came to arranging a makeover for the 79 Series canopy, it wasn’t something we did lightly. We’d already had the vehicle for nearly two years, so we had plenty of time testing out what worked and what didn’t before making any changes. Our original canopy set up had way too much weight at the […]
Western Australia’s Coral Bay is one of those places that you just need to visit. With its spectacular turquoise coloured water and fantastic white beaches, we bunked there for a few days in a great park directly opposite the beach. We had heard the park was a popular one and it was very true. It wasn’t even […]
(as published in Unsealed 4×4, Issue 31) When asked to write an article about ourselves and our set up, it’s not until you really start to think about what to say, you realise how hard it is to write about yourself. In a nutshell, we’re adventurers of sorts, so kicking back and sipping […]
When setting up a 4WD, you pretty well have the choice of going anywhere from mild to wild as far as what you do to it. But as today’s 4WDs are pretty well ready off the showroom floor to tackle beach runs, National Park tracks and dirt roads in general, you don’t have to outlay […]
