Inspiring Adventures
February/March/April
From ocean to outback and everywhere in between, this issue is your go-to guide to exploring our brilliant backyard in 2025 and beyond.
With adventures of all shapes and sizes to suit all tastes, all are designed to inspire, excite and maybe even shift your perspective.
We experience Uluṟu, the heart and soul of the country, through the eyes and guidance of its Traditional Owners, the Aṉangu. We set off along the Blue Mountains’ new multi-day Grand Cliff Top Walk, which – with easy access to public transport, manageable sections and a comfy bed at the end of each day – might just be Australia’s most accessible. We cycle the Pedal to Produce trail in Victoria’s High Country for a new take on Australia’s original ‘Gourmet Region’. And we swim with sea lions at Baird Bay on the Eyre Peninsula.
Editor Imogen Eveson shares the adventure that inspired her the most last year – a stay at Bullo River Station in the Northern Territory. This latest addition to the Luxury Lodges of Australia portfolio offers a window into life on a working cattle station.
Urban adventures more your speed? We’ve got them too: from a VIP cultural tour of Parliament House that proves an unexpected highlight of a trip to Canberra for writer Rachel Lees, to an inner-city exploration of Sydney street art using the new metro network as a springboard.
Our annual Outback Guide takes an unexpected twist to unearth all that will surprise and delight on an outback adventure: not least Queensland’s Festival of Outback Opera.
