What are the most spectacular roads in Australia?

Located between the Indian Ocean and the South Pacific Ocean, the Commonwealth of Australia is the world's sixth-largest country, covering an area of 7.7 million square kilometers. With a very diverse landscape, the country has thousands of stunning drives, ranging from coastal drives to high mountain roads.

The most iconic drives are the Great Alpine Road, Australia's highest year-round accessible paved road, and the Canning Stock Route, one of the toughest tracks in the country, running through the vast deserts of Western Australia. The Outback Highway is an adventure track you will never forget.

And the Eyre Highway features the longest straight stretch of road in the country, spanning 146.6 kilometers (91.1 mi) without any turns. It’s one of the longest roads in Australia. It’s also worth driving the Tanami Road, one of Australia's great outback adventure tracks, linking Central Australia and North West Western Australia, running across the Tanami Desert. Due to its size, Australia experiences a range of climates, from tropical in the north to temperate in the south, influenced by its size and geographical features. It’s important to plan accordingly before attempting any drive.
