                The vast Nullarbor Plain is the world's largest limestone karst landscape. It's a worthy drive, and a long one.

                The Oodnadatta Track is one of the easiest Outback tracks in Australia. This maintained gravel road follows the old Ghan railway line and the Overland Telegraph.
