Australia provides the perfect landscape for campers

Residents of Australia love camping due to the beautiful natural terrain of the country. When you venture on a locum tenens assignment in Australia, choose one of the magnificent campgrounds that dot the landscape of the wild country.

In Western Australia, the sight of Mitchell Falls will leave you breathless. Situated in Mitchell River National Park, these cascading rapids flow over four rusty red cliffs in some of the most remote terrain in the country.

Getting to the Mitchell Plateau is a bit of a climb, but worth every step. Once you've reached the camping area of the park, you must walk about 3.7 miles (6 km) to the awe-inspiring site. Make sure to bring your camera for this journey because you'll never want to forget the view.

Still have a little more time for wilderness escapades? Try tackling The Fortress in Victoria's Grampians National Park. This stop is the first on a three-day hike that will take you through the lush green forests and mountain range of the nationally protected area. Resembling the crest of a wave before it crashes along the shore, the peaks of the Grampians line up side by side, jutting out from beneath layers of leafy green trees and bushes. To see it for yourself, consider a locum tenens job in the stunning Land Down Under.
