Indian Pacific: A Journey across a Continent

INDIAN PACIFIC

The Indian Pacific is one of the world’s great rail journeys, crossing Australia from the Pacific Ocean to the Indian Ocean — or in reverse. Covering 4,352 kilometres between Sydney and Perth, this iconic transcontinental train journey takes you through an extraordinary variety of landscapes, from the lush backdrop of the Blue Mountains to the vast, seemingly endless expanse of the Nullarbor Plain, with goldfields, rocky valleys and outback landscapes in between.

But the Indian Pacific is as much about the experience on board as the landscapes outside your window. Step aboard the mighty train and settle into your comfortable private cabin, knowing that everything you need for the journey is taken care of. Relax in the lounge, enjoy regionally inspired dining and Australian wines in the restaurant, or simply watch the ever-changing scenery unfold as the train makes its way across the continent.

Along the way, off train experiences offer the chance to step beyond the railway and discover the places, people and stories that make this part of Australia so fascinating.

Whether travelling Sydney to Perth or Perth to Sydney, the Indian Pacific transforms the journey itself into the adventure.
