19.01.2022 So given the time of year and the location were passing though for the 2020 event, theres a good chance the crew will be getting their tyres into the white stuff. Time will tell just how much of it!

15.01.2022 We've been holding out as late as possible to make the call. Unfortunately however, due to travel restrictions resulting from the Corona Virus pandemic, we've had to postpone Ultimate Adventure for 2020. Lots of work has gone in to planning the event by the team and the guest section trip leaders, and we thank everyone who's been involved in the planning thus far. We will have the event back next year. Those that were to be involved with this year's event will get the first... invitations and we will open it up after that. Thanks for everyone's interest in Ultimate Adventure Australia!

09.01.2022 What is Ultimate Adventure Australia? Weve been getting asked this a lot over the past week since re-launching the page and the new logo for the event. Plans for running this event have been discussed and tweaked for around 3 years now and were ready to run the event in 2020. Ultimate Adventure Australia will be an annual event, however the destinations and routes will change each year. Theres so much amazing terrain in Australia to cover, we can afford to spread it aroun...d! The exact route for the event will be a mystery to all those involved except the crew running the event. We can tell everyone that we will be starting at the southernmost point of the Australia Mainland - Wilsons Promontory and we will be finishing at the Northernmost point of the Australian Mainland - The tip of Cape York! Whilst this may sound simple, were going to step it up a notch and cover the majority of ground between the two points on dirt! We will be driving some iconic Australian tracks, and visiting some Iconic Australian landmarks along the way! We have exactly 14 days to complete this mission! Whos going to be involved? Were going to assemble a crew of up to 20 vehicles for this massive journey. The drivers and navigators will be made up of industry experts, manufacturers, retails and a handful of keen 4wders! We will be hand picking and inviting the main crew from the industry, and have a way for experienced 4wders that may be interested in joining to apply to join the trip in the coming months. Over the next few weeks we will start to announce the event sponsors, a co-host, and the participating vehicles. This brings us to the vehicles... The vehicles participating in this trip are going to need to be modified and prepared to cover extensive amounts of harsh terrain in a limited time frame with little time to repair or service these vehicles. It will be a test of the vehicles, their accessories and the skills of the drivers and navigators operating them! It is likely that the terrain will cover everything from snow, to dirt, rock, mud, sand and deep water crossings. We will be starting the trip in a very cold en and finishing it in very warm terrain. This is The ultimate test of everything and everyone involved! Stay tuned!
