This is an invaluable guide to the cities, towns and villages of Australia, written by motoring experts and writers who have travelled their states extensively, and who know the towns and their main attractions.
Giving detailed information on each town and its surrounding area, including main features of the town, festivals, gatherings, sporting competitions, and attractions, it also contains suggestions of where to stay, covering individual tastes with a range of accommodation from five-star resorts to self-catering cottages, from bed and breakfasts to camping and caravan sites.
There is also a special introductory section including information on planning a trip, and Australia's flora and fauna, bushwalking, fishing, mountain biking, and much more. For each state there is a major regional feature of an area of exceptional beauty, and this feature includes detailed information on a national park and a 4WD trip that highlights that state's individuality.
The capital city of each state receives special treatment, with details of its origins, development and present-day attractions. The road maps are all new, commissioned particularly for this book and its companion volumes to ensure that any guesswork has been taken out of the planning stages of the trip or the journey itself.
An essential tool for anyone planning a holiday in any part of Australia.
