I recently came across a blog that offers valuable 4WDing skills and techniques, and I think it’s worth sharing.
There are up to 42 essential things you should know about 4WDing — including topics like driving through salt water, managing tyre pressures, improving fuel economy, tackling mud, and much more.
The blog is run by Aaron Schubert, who has spent the last 16 years exploring Australia. He’s driven tens of thousands of kilometres on 4WD tracks across the country and has clocked nearly 2,000 days camping in the Australian outdoors.
Lap of Australia Itinerary
In 2022, Aaron and his family set off from Perth to travel around Australia — and after more than 700 days on the road, they finally returned home! Their journey covers an incredible number of 4WD tracks, campsites, and attractions across the country. The itinerary has links to most of the places they visited. If you’re keen to do the Big Lap of Australia, there are plenty of tips to help you make it an unforgettable adventure.
Camp Cooking; amazing meals, gear reviews and recipe ideas
Food always seems to taste better when you’re camping — and Aaron and his family have spent countless hours perfecting their favourite camp meals. Over the years, they’ve tried a wide range of recipes and put together a collection of their go-to dishes for the road. In this section of the blog, you’ll find links to all their camp cooking posts.
I absolutely loved exploring this blog, and I think you will too — it’s packed with great info and inspiration!
