Hi All,

Just wondering If there is any publications out there about what you need to take on a trip around Australia.I know everyone has different ideas on what to take and what to leave at home.Just want to know what is absolutely necessary, have a fair idea but would like some experienced travellers advice.
Cheers Stephen

BCF have a checklist in there stores as to what you should take camping. Admitedly not all would apply to everyone, but it can be a start to making your own list.

Other things to look at would be spares for the car etc.

Hi Stephen

Most of us take way too much. I had a basic list when tent camping - and although it has grown a little since progressing to the present full caravan for longer term travelling, the only real necessity to me over and above the original is computer with internet.

I hope you will be having some trial runs - you will soon find what you really don't need, and you may need to purchase what you have forgotten when you need it.

You can contact me through my profile for comprehensive lists we use.
