Looking for a trip away this Easter? Take advantage of Australia's best road trips. With scenic drives from north to south and everywhere in between, our great country is the perfect playground to explore.
If you've always wanted to drive the Great Ocean Road, Captain Cook Highway, or the Grand Pacific Drive, this Easter could be your chance to do it.
Victoria
Great Ocean Road
The Great Ocean Road is one of Australia's best-known road trips for a reason. Just a few hour's drive from Melbourne, it's a convenient weekend trip, but chances are you'll want to spend longer.
The road hugs the coast from surf town Torquay and snakes its way 243 kilometres to fishing village Port Fairy. Expect stunning coastal views, headlands, rocky cliffs, nature spotting, and the famous 12 Apostles.
Spot Koalas, take a zip line trip through treetop canopies, visit surf towns, and, if you're game, take a helicopter ride over the 12 Apostles. With so much to do, allow a few days to take in the landscape and enjoy the local area.
Great Alpine Road
This 310-kilometre drive is Victoria's highest road taking you from Bairnsdale to Wangaratta. The Great Alpine Road, used part of the year to access ski resorts in Mount Hotham, has plenty to see outside ski season.
The road is nestled right beside the scenic Tambo River offering plenty of picturesque moments. Stop in at Beechworth – a gold town – to learn about the 1800s gold rush history and even stop in at the courthouse where the Ned Kelly trial was held, take a hike at Mount Feathertop, and buy some wine and cheese from gourmet town, Milawa.
New South Wales
Grand Pacific Drive
This stunning coastal drive stretches from Sydney to Wollongong, taking in some of the most beautiful scenery in NSW. The highlight is the famous Sea Cliff Bridge, which offers spectacular ocean views.
Stop at the Royal National Park for bushwalks, visit charming coastal towns like Stanwell Park, and enjoy fresh seafood along the way.
Queensland
Captain Cook Highway
Running from Cairns to Port Douglas, this tropical drive offers stunning views of the Coral Sea and access to some of Queensland's most beautiful beaches.
The drive takes you through sugar cane fields, past pristine beaches, and offers access to the Great Barrier Reef. It's the perfect road trip for those wanting a tropical Easter getaway.
