Making Tracks Adventures: Guide to the Australian Outback

By Cody McColl

Beyond the bitumen, Australia plays by different rules.

Making Tracks Adventures Guide to the Australian Outback is a practical, experience-led companion for travellers who want to explore remote Australia with more confidence, better preparation and greater respect for the country they enter.

Whether you are planning a guided journey, tag-along tour or independent road trip, Cody McColl helps you work through the decisions that matter: where to go, when to travel, realistic itineraries, fuel, water and supplies, road conditions, four-wheel-drive travel, communications, camp routines, wildlife, cultural respect, changing weather, breakdowns, emergencies and when to change the plan.

Inside you will find:

Practical planning checklists and journey tools
Travel-time and safety-margin methods
Packing, vehicle-preparation and remote-travel guidance
Advice for heat, rain, rough roads and isolation
Respectful guidance for Aboriginal Country and remote communities
Emergency, journey-planning and travel-log tools

From the Red Centre and tropical north to desert, station and mining country, this is not a guide to rushing between landmarks. It is a guide to travelling well.

Prepare carefully. Respect the country. Understand the journey. Then make tracks.
