Caravanning and Camping. Why not?

We all love a good comeback and caravanning and camping is proving to be a major drawcard as many holiday-makers swap overseas travel for the freedom of the great outdoors.

One thing on the bucket list for most Aussies is to get back to basics and bring back the great Australian caravanning adventure. With caravanning participation on the increase, and younger generations jumping on the caravanning trend, now is the perfect time to explore your own backyard, put your hands on your smart phones and share your caravanning adventure with the world.

Chris Hemsworth said it best, Australia isn't just a place you see, it's a place you feel.

Discovery Parks list four reasons why your next adventure, should be a caravanning one.

Caravanning gets you out of the big cities
The cities of Australia have a lot of excellent things to offer, however generations of campers and caravanners across the board are looking to make lifelong memories in the great outdoors with their family and friends.

With such diverse landscapes from beachs, lakes and rivers, mountains and pristine bushland, to the open plains of the Red Centre, it's important to get back to basics, get active, and connected with nature.

Make new friends
It's not just the emerging multi-generational families who are campaign and caravanning together, on any caravanning adventure there's is a good chance you will meet and make a lot of new friends along the way.

There is nothing better than exchanging stories and sharing new experiences over a few Tim-Tams and Bushells tea, hell, why not a glass of Barossa's finest... For families with kids it's also an excellent opportunity to make lifelong friends.

Caravanning in creature comfort
A caravan can be any space you want it to be, you can decorate it however you wish and fill it with whatever you want. Caravanning provides you with that sense of escape with many of the creature comforts you can enjoy at home.

Freedom to go your own way
With caravanning, you are the captain of your expedition and you can plan your trip however you want. It means that you can alter your plans on the go; if you fall in love with a location you can decide to stay there longer. You are not tied down to a specific location or to the itinerary of a bus tour. This sense of freedom will really make your journey a personal and memorable experience
