They Said It Couldn’t Be Done: See How We Got Our RV To the Tip Of Australia Safely

40 minutes

Would you try to get your caravan to the tip of Australia when everyone says it’s a bad idea?

See how we made it to the Tip, the northernmost part of Australia’s mainland! in this episode we set up camp at Seisia and spend a few days exploring the Tip of Cape York. We set off early driving an awesome 4WD track with plenty of adventurous water crossings and make it to the Tip before the crowds. We explore historic Somerset Beach and learn the dark history of the Jardine family’s rein over the region, and discover fascinating WW11 history and relics from a tragic 1945 plane crash. Plus, we give you our tips and best advice for crossing the Jardine River ferry with your full size caravan or big rig.

If you’re dreaming of tackling Cape York and towing your caravan to the tip of Australia, this series will show you how to get yourself and your equipment up and back safely without damage or breaking anything! There’s so much more to this incredible part of Australian than epic 4WD tracks and crazy river crossings, and we’re excited to share the beauty of Cape York with you!

For the next 15 days we’ll be taking in all the Cape York highlights including Iron Range National Park, Weipa, Bramwell Station, the Old Telegraph Track, Gunshot, Palm Creek, the Jardine River Crossing, Seisia, Thursday Island, and of course the Tip of Australia!
