Alternative route

Hi Alberto S,

You need to be a bit more specific with your destination. When you say “Far North”, where exactly do you mean?

Oh, I 'm sorry.Kakadu, Litchfield, Darwin. Traveltime 8 weeks max

It would be useful to know what you are driving, when you are travelling, how adventurous you are and what you want to experience.

Back a few years we took a Dutch couple (who were towing a hired 23ft caravan with a hired Landcruiser and dodging some water) via Broken Hill, Cameron Corner, Omricon, Epsilon, Innamincka, Lyndhurst, Marree, Oodnadatta, Hamilton, Abminga, Old Andado, Alice Springs.

Hi Alberto S,

You say you are “unexperienced”, to explore this further, do you understand that at this time of year, Tropical Northern Australia is in its “Wet Season”? This means it experiences very hot, and very humid weather. It is not an ideal time to be travelling to this area on sealed roads, let alone unsealed roads. Extreme flooding can be expected. Even experienced drivers do not travel remotely in these areas at this time of year unless they have a very good reason to do so. Almost all of the tourist locations will be closed. Tropical Northern Australia is best explored during the “Dry Season”, late April to early October.

Macca.
