Experiences

Savannah Way

From the colourful corals of the east to the pristine pearls of the west, The Savannah Way leads you across the vast tropical savannah grasslands of northern Australia on absolutely one of the best adventure drives in the country.

The capital of the Tropics, Cairns, with World Heritage-listed reef and rainforest surrounding it, is where we begin the 1138 km section of the Savannah Way spanning north Queensland to the Northern Territory border.

The tropical savannahs of northern Queensland are internationally recognised as a refuge for hundreds of native animals, many not found anywhere else in the world.

However, it is not just the scenery that makes this drive a special one.

Meet the friendly locals, and learn some of the hidden secrets of the region and share their experiences of life in the north.

Some of the highlights in Queensland include:

• The ancient and fascinating Undara Lava Tubes, part of the world’s longest lava flow from a single volcano
• Historic towns of Croydon, Normanton and Georgetown
• The hidden gorges of Lawn Hill, located in one of Queensland’s most scenic National Parks
• World Heritage-listed fossil fields at Riversleigh National Park
