4The Ghan (Australia) – 2,979 km
Named after the Afghan cameleers who once crossed the Australian desert, The Ghan offers a 2,979-kilometer journey from Darwin in the north to Adelaide in the south. This iconic route takes about three days and passes through the red, desolate heart of Australia, including the famous Alice Springs. The Ghan offers a rare opportunity to experience the vast and rugged Australian outback, with stops allowing travelers to explore landmarks such as Katherine Gorge. It’s a journey through both Australia’s history and its untamed landscapes.
