Pre-owned Jeep Cherokee Perth: Western Australia's Best Road Trips

The road trip: rite of passage and inspiration for some classic (and some not so classic) novels and films. Jack Kerouac’s On the Road, Dennis Hopper’s masterpiece Easy Rider and the 1970 classic Vanishing Point (although hopefully your trip will have a slightly happier ending) to name just a few. Everyone should go on at least one big road trip in his or her life. There ought to be a law.

The road trip is about the journey. The destination doesn’t really matter, and ultimately you’re going to end up at home again (with any luck). It’s about what you learn when you’re out on the road, about the things that you see and the people that you meet. And it’s also about the car. Undertaking a great road trip in a rusty old hatchback just somehow doesn’t seem appropriate. But do it in a Jeep Cherokee Perth and now we’re talking.

The Cherokee has got the perfect balance between comfort and attitude, luxury and adventure. The road trip journey isn’t about ergonomically designed seats but they sure do help when you’re spending hours behind the wheel.

So now you need to figure out where your route is going to take you. Fortunately for you, Western Australia is home to some of the best driving roads in the world. How convenient. But perhaps the best drive is between Perth and Exmouth. Starting from Glengarry in the Perth suburbs, the journey north should take about 18 hours. It is possible to do in a few days but even better when you take your time to take it all in. There’s enough to see in the 1,300 km to fill a whole fortnight and more.

Explore the beautiful beaches and dramatic gorges along the way. Visit the Kalbarri National Park gorges and Ningaloo Reef. And if you feel like taking a tour inland, the Greenough Wildlife Park puts you up close and personal with nature. Of course, it’s your road trip so you can do whatever you like.

Wherever your road trip adventure takes you, remember that it should be a life-changing experience. A time to reconnect with yourself and with this incredible land of ours. Leave a little time each day to write down what you’ve done, your thoughts and feelings. It serves as a great way to remember your journey and who knows, perhaps they’ll even make it into a film one day?
