get lost Revels in Remote Regions and Isolated Experiences

You might have thought we'd had enough of isolation this year, having lived through Melbourne lockdown, but the get lost team knows a good trend when they spot it. For issue 66, we talk up being far away from everyone and everything for our 18-page special feature, Splendid Isolation.

Read about 18 experiences, both within Australia and further afield, where you get away from the travelling hordes and feel as though you've got the place to yourself. Whether you want to go helicamping in remote South Australian ranges, stay in the branches of a tree in Japan or hike to Australia's most beautiful swimming hole, we've got you covered.

Elsewhere in the issue, we head off on a women's-only cultural tour in Kakadu, stay on sheep stations in Western Australia, explore a tiny island in Japan and go surfing on faraway waves in Papua New Guinea and much more.

“It seems as though many people are now thinking about where they're next going to travel,” says get lost publisher Justin Jamieson. “We've already heard from a number of local operators and tourism boards that Australian bookings are almost at capacity for the next couple of months, so we've taken that as a sign.

“Much of our focus was on places to visit and experiences to try without needing your passport, but we've looked a little further too. These are the destinations we might first be able to travel overseas when bubbles form or vaccines are available.

“Not surprisingly, they're also the places and experiences get lost would normally cover – it almost feels as though we're slowly returning to regular programming.”

There's plenty more on offer in issue 66: a trip to the former gold town of Castlemaine, bird watching in the Cook Islands, and a chat to the bloke producing gourmet offerings on a camp fire. Plus, we go on an overnight hike in the Warrumbungles National Park, in a collaboration with online magazine, We Are Explorers.

Issue 66 of get lost travel magazine is on sale now, including online from Apple Newsstand and Amazon.
