Outback Experience
4WD and Camping Course
Come and join us on this fantastic introduction to Outback travel, learning along the way from the experienced gained by the experts as they map and explore the best destinations Australia has to offer. This trip will take you from Perth to the Karara Rangeland Park, in the semi-arid Murchison region of Western Australia.
On this four-day, three-night adventure you will join Adventure Offroad Training as they travel along back country roads and dirt tracks to exciting destinations within the Karara Rangelands Park. On day one you will travel from Perth to our first overnight stop in the rangelands, visiting places of historical significance along the way. You’ll enjoy an evening around the campfire and learn more about travelling in this semi-arid environment.
On day two you will leave camp and travel outback tracks through the Mulga and Eucalyptus woodlands to visit interesting locations of early settler history and indigenous history, then refuel in the township of Morawa before travelling to our next overnight camp in the heart of the Karara Rangeland Park. That evening you will learn the basics of outback communication and safety, and 4wd navigation, from the experts from Hema Maps.
On day three you will pack up camp, winding through 4wd tracks and dirt roads to visit a historic sheep station where you’ll see what life used to be like when Australia “rode on the sheep’s back” at the height of the Merino wool industry in the 1950’s. You’ll then drive to our final overnight campsite, via remnants of the Goldrush days, taking in spectacular views across a huge salt lake. Weather permitting, you will enjoy a million-star view, as only the outback can provide.
Day four will be our journey home, taking in the sights of an abandoned but restored sheep station homestead along the way. We will travel together to Dalwallinu in the Wheatbelt, before saying our goodbyes and heading home along Great Northern Highway.
This journey is considered remote. In the main there are no facilities, so you will need take everything you need with you to ensure that you are comfortable. This trip is typical of many Outback journeys in that we will be camping in a different campsite each night – this is the only way to see the sights of the region without driving huge distances each day. The lighter you can travel the more enjoyable it will be for you. Most of all, bring a sense of adventure and a sense of humour, as the Outback weather and track conditions can change suddenly – it’s all part of the experience! If you’re a newbie to remote travel this isn’t as hard as it sounds, and the experienced team at Adventure Off-Road Training can guide you with what to take and what not to take to make your journey enjoyable.
By the end of this course, you will have learnt much about travelling in a remote area, how to set up your vehicle for this type of journey, and how to drive to these unique conditions.
