My travel motto -especially by car is:

"The Road Less Traveled is the Road Best Traveled"

That's the way to go! I hate Interstate Highways. What a neat cross section of Australia. Thanks a lot.

Wow, you've got some desolate country out there!


Thanks for looking nimbushopper. Australia is cited as the driest inhabited continent in the world with 70% of the mainland classified as Arid or Semi Arid Zone. Only the coastal regions and the tropical region in the north of Australia are likely to receive more than 500 mm of rain per annum. Some inland areas often go for 2 or 3 or more years with out receiving a measurable quantity of rain.

I’m glad you took the road. It provided very interesting photos. Also glad for the water. Although it brought devastation to the cattle, it brought nice images to see.


Thank you for the feedback Inl. Since much of inland Australia receives less than 250mm of rain per annum, and sometimes non at all, the sight of water is always exciting.

During our travels around Australia my wife and I often look for alternative routes to the busier, often more populated main roads. The “road less travelled” may not always be the shortest or the prettiest route between destinations but if we have previously driven the main road route we like to explore other options.

In 2019 while driving through central outback Queensland we decided to take the less popular route from Winton to Mount Isa via Boulia, a total of 666km (414miles), rather than the more direct route 468km (390miles), via the main highway.

The road we chose was sealed but only one lane wide, however we never encountered any road trains or other heavy vehicles and only a handful of other vehicles which made the journey much less stressful and more enjoyable than the alternative main road route.
