Driving on Australia's lonely long roads, it is important to take frequent stops to avoid driver fatigue.

This article highlights how to make the most of rest areas and provides tips for those that seek out places to stop overnight for free camping. We include instructions to allow you to get the GPS positions from ExplorOz for all rest areas, including the 24 hour rest areas, where you can free camp.
