Hey guys,
This thread is to go along with my other one but are both very different and that's why i have made them seperate.
In August 2014 my partner and i are planning on doing a bit of touring. Leaving from the NSW Central Coast we are planning on heading up to Alice Springs. My Partners aunty is a Police officer in a remote town a couple of hours out of Alice so that is our ultimate destination but getting to and from there is where i need some help.
We have never done any big trips like this before so are unsure about where to start, what would you suggest be the best way to plan this out and can you recommend some good maps to use? My Prado that we are touring in has the factory GPS so this may help but again i don't know what the best option here is.
The only thing we have though about is that we would like to head across to SA and see the likes of Cooper Pedy etc and as many other small town along the way. We aren't concerned about staying on major highway but in saying that we will be on our own and the Prado does not have a winch to assist us.
We of course want to see the rock and other iconic places and after Alice we plan on heading up to Darwin and were then thinking about heading across to QLD and back down to NSW from there.
Any recommendation on how/where to start planning or work out the best route for that time of year taking into account road closures etc will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers, Josh.
