The System in Action
Integrating desert experiences and
commercial opportunities
This application tours around the Red Centre Way in Central
Australia to demonstrate a system in action. Connections are made
between the desires of people who would like to explore these
desert landscapes and the difficulties and opportunities facing
desert communities in realising meaningful benefits from this form
of tourism. It also discusses the emerging role of themed
driving routes as attractions in their own right.
A particular focus of this tour is the difficulties faced by the
supply-side of tourism in desert areas of Australia. We
discuss the homogenous nature of product offerings and the ability
of organisations and businesses servicing the 4WD tourism sector to
innovate as they endeavour to attract economic and other benefits
from interactions with 4WD travellers.
