About this listen

There's no better way to see this vast country of ours than by hitting roads along the coastline, or heading inland to the mountains, deserts and wide, open plains. As host of ABC TV's Back Roads, Heather Ewart has travelled thousands of kilometres over a multitude of routes – some bitumen, some little more than rough dirt tracks – to bring a taste of life beyond the cities to viewers.

At a time when Australians are embracing the country they live in and wanting to explore our richly diverse landscapes more than ever, Heather has some fabulous suggestions to get you started. From the dusty Oodnadatta Track to the spectacular Great Alpine Road to byways along the sparkling and pristine topaz waters around Esperance, Ewart's road trips reflect her own distinct experience and come with personal tips on getting the best out of your journey.

So what are you waiting for? Load your vans, fuel up, and let Ewart take you across the country to discover the jewels she knows about and ones the locals wouldn't want you to miss.
