Megan Arkinstall for Australian Traveller provides her top 15 inspiring Aussie adventures to lock in now for 2025 ~
“Adventures are more than heart-racing, dangerous pursuits. They’re venturing into remote regions. Trying something new. Experiences that fill you with awe and leave you with exciting stories to tell.”
#1 Stay on a working outback cattle station, Northern Territory ~ Bullo River Station
“Set on more than 160,000 hectares of privately owned countryside – technically in the Northern Territory but considered part of the Kimberley – Bullo River Station is where outback hospitality meets untold adventure. The Sibella Court-designed property is the latest to join Luxury Lodges of Australia and defines the concept of ‘luxury of experience’. It’s a taste of life on a remote cattle station, with access to exceptional experiences such as a helicopter flight over a landscape carved and braided by gorges, waterfalls and jewel-like waterholes that you can swim in.”
#10. Shift your perspective on Uluṟu, Northern Territory ~ Longitude 131°
“Experiencing Uluṟu through Anangu guides shifts your perspective. The landscape is no longer simply a vast, open plain; it’s a book, a kitchen, a medicine cabinet, and a layered archive of personal history. Join a Maruku Arts’ cultural walking tour or dine under a desert sky during the Tali Wiṟu dining experience, to hear the Tjukurpa stories in this iconic landscape that will reveal itself as a vessel of stories, a home and a wellspring of spirituality. Luxury lodge Longitude 131° has striking views of Uluṟu from its exclusive safari-style tents.
