Peyto Lake in the Canadian Rockies is brilliant blue in an impressive landscape

Canada is a land of stunning scenery, but a Canadian Rockies road trip from Banff to Jasper hits the ball right out of the proverbial park. Cool alpine villages, snow capped mountains over-looking pine filled slopes, impossibly iridescent lakes and the promise of the big five (deer, elk, moose, wolf and bear) around every corner, are just …

A Coffs Harbour to Brisbane road trip, covering approximately 400km of the Australian A1 route, passes a stellar line-up of coastal towns with their beaches, rivers and relaxed lifestyles.

The Lake Louise to Emerald Lake detour, might be a short 50 km drive off the Banff to Jasper merry-go-round, but it is a big-time opportunity to experience a spectacular lake landscape. I am a huge fan of the Canadian Rockies. When our Banff to Jasper Road Trip was over, I admit to shedding a …

It is easy to fall in love with the Canadian Rockies postcard town of Banff, with it’s cute buildings and Cascade mountain backdrop. Arriving in Banff via Kootenay National Park, where Grizzly Bears were visibly out of hibernation, had us pumped to begin our Banff to Jasper road trip.  But first we’d planned some easy …

Free Camping is never far from the thoughts of travellers camping or caravanning in Australia. Sprinkling free camps liberally amongst paid caravan park stays is a great way of keeping costs down. South of Rockhampton in Central Queensland, the Burnett Highway leaves the coast and the Bruce Highway behind and heads inland to a great …
