Gear: Vehicle & Van Preparation
Having the right gear and preparation of your caravan and tow vehicle for outback travel is essential to ensure a safe and enjoyable journey through Australia’s remote landscapes. Outback conditions can be challenging. Long stretches between fuel stops, limited water sources and varying road surfaces from bitumen to gravel and dirt tracks. Key preparations include vehicle selection. Suspension mods, carrying extra fuel and water and having quality tyres with spares for both the caravan and tow vehicle. Reliable navigation tools, communication devices like a UHF radio or satellite phone, and an emergency repair kit are also vital. Packing these essentials and conducting thorough vehicle checks will equip you to handle the unique demands of outback travel, giving you peace of mind as you explore some of Australia’s most breathtaking and isolated destinations.
