4WD Touring Cairns, Australia

4WD in the DaintreeTropical North Queensland is renowned for its rugged and exotic landscape. Much of the countryside is undeveloped, providing vast tracts of land perfect for camping, fishing, hunting, and other outdoor activities.

The best way to get to these spots is by 4WD – either your own or with a guided tour. There are hundreds of tracks to test your off-road driving skills, varying in length from a few kilometers to hundreds of kilometers.

One of the most famous tracks is from Cairns to Cape York, covering more than 3000 kilometers. Getting there and back in a private 4WD takes at least 4 days, but you'll experience rugged 4WDing, secluded camping, remote beaches and fantastic fishing. Along the way, travelers pass through small towns such as Cooktown, Coen and Weipa where supplies can be topped up.

When traveling on a 4WD adventure, please leave as little impact on the environment as possible. Drive only on marked tracks, watch out for wildlife, and take all your rubbish back home with you. Tropical North Queensland is a fragile ecosystem, so thrashing it to bits with your tough 4WD isn't in anyone's interest.

Organised trips are also available where trained drivers take you on an overland journey for one day, or weeklong trips. The drivers, whom have extensive knowledge of the region, can find all the hidden and elusive spots.
