    In unsere zweite Australienreise – die erste war in 1999 – waren wir drei Monate im Sued-Osten des Kontinents unterwegs. Von Melbourne aus, wo wir einen Toyota Lancruiser mieteten ging es durch die unterschiedlichsten Landschaften: von der Great Ocean Road durch den Little Dessert National Park, den Grampiens Gebirge, den Flinders Range Bergzug, den Gammon Range, Salzsee Lake Eyre, Oodnadatta Track bis an den Rand der Simpson Wueste, Opal shopping in Coober Pedy, durch die Strzelecki Wueste zum Angeln bei den Seen um Innamincka, Richtung Osten zur Great Dividing Range, Blue Mountains bei Sydney und schliesslich die Wuesten im Malee Country. 11000km, von National Park zu National Park, wild campen, wandern, angeln.

 

    Our Australian tour, the second after a six week trip in 1999, started on 9.02.2002 from Melbourne. We travelled for three months through different landscape, from the Great Ocean Road to the arid area of Victoria in Little Desert National Park and the Grampians, from the mountains of Flinders Range and Gammon Range to the edge of Simpson Desert of South Australia, from the lush forest of Blue Mountains in New South Wales to the semiarid part of Victoria in Malee Country, on a trip which stretched for 11.000 km. We rented a Toyota Landcruiser and spent most of the time in national parks in the wild camping, trekking, fishing.

    Here are some of the photos which can bring you the feeling of our journey.

 

    A doua vacanta in Australia, prima fiind in 1999, a inceput pe 9 februarie 2002 in Melbourne. Am calatorit timp de trei luni in partea de sud-est si centrala a continentului, de la Great Ocean Road pina la zonele aride din Victoria (Little desert N.P. si Grampians), de la muntii Flinders Range and Gammon Range pina la marginea desertului Simpson si Lacul Eyre din South Australia, de la Blue Mountains in New South Wales inapoi in zonele semiaride ale Victoriei, in Malee Country. Am inchiriat o Toyota Landcruiser 4x4 si am condus 11.000 km, petrecind cea mai mare parte a timpului in parcuri nationale unde am campat, am facut excursii cu rucsacul, am pescuit.
