East to West, come for a 2,700 km epic drive with us! From Winton, Queensland, to Laverton, Western Australia via the Northern Territory’s Red Centre, The Outback Way, carves a well-worn 2700km track through the heart of Australia. The Outback Way is Australia’s Route 66, the great Australian Road Trip… unearth the magic and immerse yourself in a journey like never before. It’s a road trip that lets you sink into the peaceful colours of the Australian Outback, where your odometer collects memories with every kilometer. Whether you are zig-zagging the nation or you want a shorter invigorating getaway to awaken your senses -you’ll marvel at nature’s diversity, feel the cool waters in shimmering gorges wash over you, be inspired by the unique architecture of every mountain range, and hear the desert oaks whisper in their majestic forests. Immerse yourself in Indigenous culture, pioneering heritage, follow the Art Trail, get into the country spirit of an outback festival, and enjoy the outback hospitality at every town you pull into.

Hi guys I first did this trip back in 1984 Had to apply for permits to cross aboriginal lands from Perth … took 6weeks to come through … ( permits that is) Was very remote back then Had to book in with police at Laverton and when completed at Ayres Rock ! I was in an old series 3 Landrover Had to carry all fuel required She’s a bit different today ! Bit of a cakewalk compared to then They’re talking about tarring it all That would make the trip fantastic… and let you enjoy the magnificent scenery better Thanks guys

Going a few kays slower might save everything flying around in the van, and welds breaking? PS. 99% of those wrecked cars on the road come from the 'communities'. Or have been "borrowed"

great video guys .could you help me my partner wants a double axel caravan for traveling out back but i think a single axel would be better what do you think 😊
@happycampersaustralia
@happycampersaustralia Год назад
We prefer single axle for off road manoeuvres. It gets into tight places easier. We have done about 200 thousand KMs on single axle, including remote tracks. Just be pedantic about checking tyres regularly (on some tracks they are checked daily) …… If you wife wants dual axle because she wants a large van, you have no choice, but if a small van will suit, there is no need to worry about blow outs as long as you are aware of what is going on with your tyres.

I noticed you covered over the external fridge vent. Assuming that it is three-way fridge, how significant did this affect its operation at? Did you also cover over the hot water vent?
@happycampersaustralia
@happycampersaustralia 19 дней назад
Yes, it is a 3 way fridge. We turned the fridge off while it was covered, and turn it back on when we arrive at camp. Because the fridge is closed the whole time it did not get warm, and we travelled in winter which helped too. We have covered the hot water in the past, not sure if we did that time. We tend to just blow the dust out of the hot water every so often after dusty roads. (With a blower vac) By doing that, we are getting lazy with covering it as much as we used to. 😃

@fawkesp 18 дней назад
@@happycampersaustralia Thanks. If you don't mind me asking, how many hours a day would you say you travelled in this crossing? I only ask because my experience has been that the 3-way fridge does not perform well on 12 volt, so I would be fearful of turning it off completely. Peter.
@happycampersaustralia
@happycampersaustralia 18 дней назад
Don’t be fearful. It is just like a big esky. We had it turned off (no power at all) for 4 to 5 hours per day. Everything stayed fresh. If we were in the tropics with 30+ days, it would be a different story, but we never have an issue turning the fridge off for a few hours in normal to cool conditions.

I see some websites say you need a 4wd to do this trip, but none of the roads look like you actually need 4wd. Did you even have your rig in 4wd at all? Do you think a Sprinter van would make it? They have excellent ground clearance and I have been on many gravel roads. Obviously, after rain things may be too slippery and/or boggy for a 2wd, but the road looked fine on your video.
@happycampersaustralia
@happycampersaustralia 9 месяцев назад
Hi, I’d have no question that the Sprinter would make the first part of the Journey from Winton to Uluru. The W/A side of it is very rough with corrugations (especially west to east) and not sure if the interior contents of the Sprinter would suffer. Having said that, Bull dust or Sandy sections wasn’t a problem and the worse road was the side road to Lassiters Cave. Hope this helps!
@MrGundawindy
@MrGundawindy 9 месяцев назад
@@happycampersaustralia thanks for your reply. That does help heaps. I'm not worried about corrugations. I just don' t want to get stuck, so the soft stuff that lasts for more than 100m or so that needs 4wd or actual bog after rain would be my main concern. It just moved onto my list of possibilities. Cheers.

@@andrewford80 yeh, if it's bad enough that 2wd will damage the road I don't want to risk it. Not primarily for the sake of the road, but if it's that soft I'm only one mistake away from being bogged. 👍
