Adelaide to Canberra road trip: Distance, driving time & stops

Adelaide to Canberra road trip stops: Murray Bridge and Ouyen

Then the South Eastern Freeway continues to the South Australian town of Murray Bridge, where the route first encounters the Murray River.

Murray Bridge accommodation options include the Bridgeport Hotel and heritage-listed Balcony On Sixth Lodge.

Cutting through some phenomenally tedious stretches of rural South Australia, the Adelaide to Canberra drive continues across the Victorian border. It skirts under the Murray Sunset National Park, goes through Ouyen and turns for the north at Tooleybuc. You’ll join the Sturt Highway just before Balranald in New South Wales.

Balranald accommodation options with an outdoor pool include the Capri Motel and Balranald Motor Inn.
