This state forest is just one hour inland from Newcastle and it’s one of the places to visit between Sydney and Brisbane that we’d recommend in a heartbeat. The abandoned plane at Watagans state forest isn’t well known about, it isn’t signposted at t...

It would take us up the entire South East coast between Melbourne Adelaide, with a minor detour to The Grampians National Park. We gave ourselves a week, although in retrospect we could have maybe done with a little longer, perhaps maybe 10 days, so ...
