The Grey Nomad's Guidebook

More and more older Australians are joining, or planning to join, the ranks of the grey nomads - realising their dreams of freedom and adventure by taking The Big Lap around the country. Drawing on our own experiences, numerous campfire chats with others and feedback from visitors to our website, we have created a guidebook for grey nomads. The book contains advice on everything you need to know including:

  • When and where to go

  • a State-by-state breakdown, featuring detailed maps showing major roads and attractions;

  • financing and planning a long-term trip;

  • managing your affairs while you're away;

  • choosing a rig;

  • health on the road and in the wilds;

  • setting up camp;

  • safety and maintenance.

We hope The Grey Nomad's Guidebook provides user-friendly, practical and comprehensive information for nomads taking off for a month or a lifetime! Our book is published by Pan Macmillan and is available in good bookstores.
