Overseas
Overseas visitors, the easiest entry point into Australia is through Sydney.

Driving via Canberra
The Outpost is 5 to 6 hours drive south from Sydney via Canberra. We suggest you make a day of the drive from Sydney and take in the sights of Canberra along the way.

From Canberra you have two choices, the shortest and prettiest is through Tharwa and the Namadgi National Park. It does however mean driving for 46km on an unsealed road. The alternative is via Cooma and Adaminaby. At Adaminaby look for the ‘Yaouk’ sign, ’The Outpost’ is 25 minutes north on an unsealed road. The latter route is recommended if you are driving a low clearance European car, sports car or travelling at dawn, dusk or after dark because of the wildlife on the road.

From Canberra you can either drive via Cooma and Adaminaby (at Adaminaby look for the ‘Yaouk’ sign, ‘The Outpost’ is 25 minutes north on an unsealed road.) Or drive through Tharwa and the Namadgi National Park (46km of unsealed road).

Driving north from Melbourne or via Jindabyne
You will need drive through either Cooma - Adaminaby, or Tumut - Adaminaby over the Snowy Mountains highway. At Adaminaby look for the ‘Yaouk’ sign. ‘The Outpost’ is 25 minutes north on an unsealed road.

Note: The Outpost is on an unsealed road, if renting a vehicle please check and be aware of conditions regarding driving on unsealed roads. Avis will insure drivers on unsealed roads and so will ‘Network’ in Canberra 1800 077 977.

Flying
You can fly into Canberra or Cooma from Sydney or Melbourne with flights running daily. We can arrange to pick you up from either of these airports or you can organise your own hire car. We also have a helicopter pad that has been used a few times by our guests (please talk to Jill first before dropping in!).
