New Ningaloo campsite booking system under review after website crashes
Original source: abc.net.au

The West Australian government says a new booking system for campsites along the Ningaloo coast will be reviewed after the website crashed repeatedly upon launch. The system, intended to provide fairer access, opened six-month bookings at 10am on the first Tuesday of each month instead of midnight. In the first 24 hours, 5,500 people entered a queue, resulting in 2,000 bookings for 550 campsites.

Four new Tiny Houses with vineyard views have arrived in Coonawarra

Coonawarra Bush Holiday Park in South Australia has added four new Tiny Houses, including two single-storey and two double-storey units. Perched on a hill, they offer views of vineyards and bushland.

Electric camper and round-Australia trip

Clive Attwater and his partner Sue have embarked on a round-Australia trip in an electric camper based on the Farizon SV van. The couple plans to follow a figure-eight route starting from Hobart, passing through Victoria, South Australia, Alice Springs, Darwin, Western Australia, the Nullarbor, Townsville, and the east coast. The camper is equipped with solar panels, a domestic battery, and a fully electric kitchen. The trip aims to demonstrate the feasibility of long-distance electric travel and to inform campground operators about preparing for electric vehicle charging. The cargo van costs between €43,000 and €49,000, with conversion adding €18,000 to €30,500.

Toyota Land Cruiser 78 becomes camper for 5,499 AUD — Summit Vans drops pop-top

Australian builder Summit Vans has introduced a conversion kit for the Toyota Land Cruiser 78 Troop Carrier that does not require a pop-top roof. The base furniture kit costs 5,499 AUD and excludes a fridge, battery, water system and installation. The module includes an L-shaped bench that converts into a 1,910x965 mm bed and a bamboo worktop. Factory assembly in Wollongong starts at 8,499 AUD, with a production lead time of three to four weeks. The vehicle is cramped for full-time living: standing height is not possible inside, and the bed is mainly for one person. However, it retains standard height and can still be used as a regular off-roader between trips.
