Outback

The West Australian Outback really is the outback. Being such a massive state WA is home to vast tracts of desert and red plains, massive mountain ranges and breathtaking formations.

Distances here are mind numbing if you're driving so allow pleanty of time and be well prepared. Chartering a light plane is a good option if you want to cover the state in a reasonable time frame.
