Savannah Way
The Savannah Way
The Savannah Way runs from Cairns in Queensland to Broome in Western Australia.
The route is loosely defined and can include numerous alternative routes, depending on who you talk to. Nominally, Cairns to Broome is about 3,500km. But it can be a whole lot further once you start taking side trips and alternate routes!
We’re slowly filling in the gaps… and the alternate routes and the side trips!
If you want to see the Top End of Australia, then the Savannah Way (and all its alternate routes) has hundreds of incredible destinations for you to choose from.
We still have a few gaps to fill in on the map below. However, you’ll find plenty of information in the posts below.
Enjoy your journey of discovery across the Top End!
