davr

Can't narrow it to just one..... this list could go on for a long time but I couldn't get it past these three....

Winton without a doubt, followed closely by the Warrumbungles Nat Park, followed closely by Nth Stradbroke Island etc etc.... LOL.....

Cheers

Brian

Eighty Mile WA beach caravan park but unfortunately they don't take dogs anymore.
Geoff

Lawn Hill National Park

Sandy Cape, West coast Tassie but then I wouldn't want it any closer as then it wouldn't be a remote peaceful destination :-)
Cheers Craig.............

Welford National Park

Awinya Creek on the West Coast of Fraser Island.

Kununurra and its surrounds.

I've been sitting here trying to pick one place, the harder I think the more places I put on the list.

Karajini NP, Coral Bay, Valley of the Giants, really if it is in the bush I want to be there.

We haven't been down the Eastern Seaboard yet but I think it would be hard to beat the beauty of good old WA. Before I duck for cover now I would like to point out that I wasn't born in WA.

Hi Fred

This is something i ask travellers who have done the big lap.

We have seen mainly only the southern parts. How can Tasmania compare to the outback? I cannot pick one.

Apart from everything we have seen (excluding cities and some of the larger towns), highlights - not in any order of favoritism include;

Mountains in Tasmania (my memories refreshed from a recent thread). Most of Tasmania is so scenic.
Daintree Forest - beautiful rain forest right to the coast
Karijini NP
Northern Flinders Ranges
Ningaloo Coast
The Pilbara
Karri Forests in the SW of WA
Cape Le Grande NP (east of Esperance)

and so many other places.

Motherhen

Euro Bluff, near Pannawonica.

Ell Pool (Running Waters) on Skull Springs Road. East of Nullagine

Any MacDonalds , burp

I'd die happy watching a sunset over the beach at Karrumba.
But, there's a heap more sunsets in a hundred other places to come before that happens.

Half the fun is getting to your favourite spot so I wouldn't want mine to be only an hour away. Also, the spots you find along the way to your "favourite spot" can sometimes be nicer than your prefered destination.

I however (according to your post request) choose my favourite spot as Curtis Island off Gladstone CQ. Awesome fishing, isolated, turtle nesting, crays, did I mention isolated.... 6 week christmas stays and only one other vehicle turning up.

Gotta go, this post is making my feet itchy LOL!!!

Happy xmas,
Trevor.

It's true there are so many places that could be on a list like this.Lawn Hill for me is mainly because of how it affected me the first time we were there. I think sometimes, it's more the feeling you get from a place than it's actual physical appearance.

Some of my favourite places...now that I've thought more...aren't exactly awe inspiriing but just thinking about them instantly bring back the feeling of being there.

For instance, the first trip we had to the NT and we were sitting just on dusk at Springvale Homestead, Katherine when the bats flew overhead. I'll never forget the sight of wave upon wave of these huge bats in the evening sky. I think of that and I feel the hot, Katherine night and I'm back there again.

Camped at Policeman's Waterhole in Davenport NP and in the night the raucous bray of a donkey nearly gave me a heart attack...I'll always remember that place.

Coming to the top of the jump up between Windorah and Jundah...that view never fails to take give me delight.

Seeing the Peak Ranges poke their pointy heads up against the skyline as we're driving between Emerald and Clermont.

I could go on and on....but isn't it great that we've got such a great country, with so much to see and such diversity.

I'm like Trevor...my feet are itchy!!!

Viv

Rudall River National Park in W.A.

It has to be experienced, as it can't adequately be described--> KAKADU map

Mainey...

The campsite on the Southern Bank of Cockatoo Creek OTL.
Go swimming all day, lounge around in the fast flowing water watching other travellers strut their stuff, meeting the other travellers, awesome campfire, the tranquillity at night time, the rain during the night, ...... HOW GOOD IS THAT?...

Fred

I could not argue with any of the above, but I reckon my tops is Durba Springs along the Canning. We took a break there for three nights and it was like paradise.

Jeez were doe's one start,for some one that love's the outback i ca'nt go past LAWN HILL N/P sitting there on top of that rock over looking the river and taking it all in what a feelin.cheer's GREENDOG

All of Tasmania, but Freycinet Peninsula, town of Ross, areas around Deloraine, Strahan, Cradle Mountain etc. Being able to set up the caravan on a quiet part of beach or in a forest without any great crowds or restrictions was memorable. Watching heaps of platypus playing in the river near Latrobe was probably the most memorable, as was the ferry trip back from Devonport to Sydney on a perfect Sunday morning up the east coast and in through the heads.

Whitecliffs in Western NSW has special memories because it was so different particularly because a super friendly local resident gave us a great guided tour of her underground house.Birdsville and the races.

We are also lucky to have access to a large family property in the Lockyer Valley SEQ, where we spend a week camping every 6 weeks or so during the cooler months of the year to catch up with relatives and friends. We have a great camp kitchen and nearly all the comforts of home. If ever you are near Mulgowie which is 10K south of Laidley, make sure you visit the local pub for a Counter Tea on a Friday and Saturday night, it is the best!!!!

Fred,

Police Hole, Keep River NP.

Worked around there for 6 years, long before it was ever gazetted.

Definitely God's country!

Second choice: Top of Mayne Range, with friends, food & cold drinks, when it's still 40 degrees, and the sun is slowing sinking into the channels of the Diamantina.

They'll do for starters........

Hooroo,
Bob.

Ormiston Gorge. Used to be in my backyard. Or Ellery Ck Gorge which was a great place for a dip.
