Outback Trail Accommodation Guide

The Outback Trail

Looking for somewhere to rest your boots along the way?

We've mapped out every place to stay along The Outback Trail 2027, so you can spend less time searching and more time dreaming about red dirt roads and starry outback skies.

Scroll down and you'll find each stop on the journey, town by town, with a full list of caravan parks, campsites and motels — contact details, links straight to their websites, and a few sweet deals tucked in along the way.

If you're joining us out west or up north, here's our advice from the road: lock in your accommodation early. Book ahead, pack the car (or the camper), and you'll be ready to hit the highway the moment the Trail kicks off.

We can't wait to meet you all along the journey!
