Caravanning with Kids

Caravanning with Kids Pre-kids, we were hotel people, we loved luxury and the thought of staying at a caravan park would have never crossed our minds. We were converted.

MAIN SHOP - www.adventureawaits.com.au ABOUT CARAVANNING WITH KIDS

From rookies to seasoned roadies Adele & Wayne have learned, laughed and loved every minute of their journey as a ‘family who caravans’…

When we started out we were completely clueless

all things caravanning! Post-kids we discovered a whole new world of adventure along with a whole new respect for the Australian holiday park and camping industry. We hope you might be too! If you aren’t you don’t know what you are missing – and we’d love to share with you! Our caravan is our little slice of escapism, we love to take regular short breaks and this is the perfect fit to our day-to-day life. There are no hotels to book, no gear to pack. We love the ability to escape at the drop of a hat. Whatever style of trip suits your family be it epic ocean-to-ocean or just a mini-break we look forward to getting to know you. This website is our online shop for our Travel Journals & Log Books, but also a destination to find some ideas and tips, handy links and a curation of the things we love. THANK YOU so much for joining us on this adventure. We hope you re-discover family life just like we did! Welcome to the journey! Adele, Wayne, Ashlee & Kate

Don’t miss the stunning Redbank Gorge when you visit the West MacDonnell Ranges. We decided to air-down on the way in as the road was a bit rough, but whether you need to do the same will just depend on the condition of the road at the time. It was also way too cold to swim on our visit.

📹

‘The walk in took a little more effort than we had planned, but the reward was hard to beat. Blake took one for the team and braved the freezing water swimming right into the gorge 🫣

Happy to stay on the rocks for this one 😅’

A great spot! Campsite bookings via the website.

📹

📍Porcupine Gorge, QLD

‘Just 45 minutes out of Hughenden is this spectacular natural beauty.

We can’t believe how quiet this place was. There was still plenty of spots to camp right in at the National Park or at the free camp back at Hughenden.

580 steps of scaling rocks and dirt paths, the average time is 45 minutes down - we took an hour with 3 kids (and lots of stops to look at bugs & rocks).

We then ventured to the bottom of the pyramid, past rocks pools and a running stream to find a beautiful gorge for swimming & a picnic.

Absolutely recommend adding this spot to your bucket list. We rate it up there with Carnarvon Gorge.’

Our biggest disappointment when visiting Kakadu was missing this place 😩 It was shut at the time and you’d best believe it’s on our bucket list to tick off one day!

Just like our popular Map of Australia stickers, our State Map stickers keep things nice & simple - detailed enough to show towns, highways, and National Parks, but clean enough to pop on your caravan, fridge or esky without taking over.

Designed & printed right here in Australia 💕🇦🇺

11 years ago, somewhere on an Aussie highway with two little girls asleep in the back seat, a big idea was born… 🚐

We couldn’t find an Australian-made Kids Travel Journal… so we decided to create one ourselves.

What started as TWO books around our kitchen table turned into:

👉 Thousands of travelling families...
👉 TV appearances & magazine spreads...
👉 Award-winning Aussie-made products...
👉 Hundreds of stockists...
👉 An incredible caravanning community...
👉 A business we still pinch ourselves over every single day...

There were plenty of moments where we wondered…

“Will people actually love these?”

“Can this really work?”

“Are we completely crazy?” 😅

But here we are… 11 years later!

Those two little girls in the back seat are all grown up now, and we are so incredibly grateful to every single person who supported Caravanning with Kids along the way.

Every order.
Every share.
Every kind message.
Every family who packed our books for their adventures.

Thank you for backing Aussie made, regional business and this wild little dream of ours...

Here’s to the next chapter of the adventure… 🚐
