Sometimes IT IS ILLEGAL to do FREE OFFGRID CAMPING, especially in WESTERN AUSTRALIA (Outback Australia) but the REALITY of TRAVELLING AUSTRALIA is you have to break the rules sometimes, especially when everywhere is fully booked out. In our video we continue our OVERLAND JOURNEY across THE SAVANNAH WAY, leaving Katherine in the NORTHERN TERRITORY, head across the border into WESTERN AUSTRALIA and onto KUNUNURRA. We show everyday REAL TRAVEL LIFE as we continue travelling Australia Full Time in our 79 SERIES LANDCRUISER and ROOF TOP TENT as we not only show the wonders of this place such as IVANHOE CROSSING and MIRIMA National Park BUT everyday ups and downs of roof top tent camping, cooking and general living out of a Ute.

Lovely ep and spots guys. Home Valley station told us it was Illegal to free camp 36 years ago Noone I know been Fined,
So it wasn't the screaming parrots that afternoon, screaming. Lemon and beer, hmmm. I didn't know it's illegal to park and sleep in Western Australia.
Love the Hat's !!
It’s only illegal if you get caught
Thanks for the video ( love it ) what month were you there at the crossing .
Cheers
Is that no camping in National Parks only or everywhere?
Shame about wet spam beating Ipswich, but all said your on the best journey 👍
its not illegal to free camp in WA, probably just in certain areas
Respectfully, lack of free camping in WA isn't a legal issue. 🙏
It's those travellers who break the local rules, leave their mess and disrespect country that will see more and more places closed off or "managed" to restrict access.
I'm hoping your obvious love for camping, touring and respect for our great state of WA will influence the people who follow you to also do the right thing.
Thanks
Free camping that’s me leave no trace lol ❤ you’re Chanel
So, back in the good old days you could camp anywhere across Australia, but as public lands and state forests moved into National parks free camping has significantly disappeared. This is a major issue happening in Victoria today with the Great Forest Nation Park proposal.
In WA free camping (unless assigned by Gov) is illegal and currently carries a $1000 fine. Some argue this is revenue raising for both tourist operators and aboriginal communities, but regardless it does make travel unviable for some.
There is also the senseless. For example in the Nuytsland Nature Reserve WA it will take you 2 – 3 days driving to follow the Old Telegraph track and yet ALL Camping is prohibited. Obviously people simply ignore the law.
But when you travel Australia you also learn about the dark side, and some of that dark side is Australia really is increasingly only a country for the wealthy. As such, I think if you cant afford to be paying for accommodation in WA when there is no allocated free camping then you probably shouldn't be there.
How many cups of teas do U have a day…
How ling have U been here in Aussie sounds like U just got off the Boat…😂😂😂😂❤
Plenty f free camping in WA.
A beautiful spot off the road with creek/lagoon have stayed there and swam there, not to far from Timber Creek
Stayed a couple nights❤❤❤and would definitely stay again and just around the bend a little walk was a deeper pool to swim in 😊
Hey guys how ye doing.
So question I have and it seems no one ever seems to give a good explanation of it.
We are planning to do what ye guys are doing in the future.
But i wish someone would please explain on video and show what systems ye use.
So portable toilet I know it’s not a nice topic but if ya don’t know you don’t know eh…
Do you guys use a chemical or compost.??
And showers do ye have a heater or what sorta setup have ye got and if so, how much water do ye carry and how many showers can you get??
TIA any info greatly appreciated.
Apologies for the awkward topic😂
Great Vid….
The ranger is telling you BS because WA has millions of free camping places. Many national parks you can't but everywhere else is good to go.
We used to put about 20% Lemonade into a schooner and call it a Shandy. Problem here is the more drinks you have the less lemonade you put in…..lol
Sorry to tell you but you can buy lemon beers at the bottle I think😊😎
Good men break bad laws
Love your videos. Where did you get the lovely floral shortfalls from? You looked great in them. ❤
I think you will find it is illegal to camp any where within 16km [10 miles] from a town with a caravan park
