There’s nothing quite like hitting the open road: windows down, tunes pumping, enjoying snacks and scenic views. Few drives are as jam-packed as the journey from Brisbane to the Gold Coast – especially when you take the slow route.
From Brissie’s bustling cityscape to the lush hinterlands and striking beaches of the Gold Coast, this quintessential Queensland road trip is known for its laid-back vibe, warm weather and endless opportunities to explore some of the Sunshine State’s best-loved spots. Sure, you can power through it in just over an hour, but then you’ll miss all the highlights. Add in a few detours off the highway and you’ll find delicious pit stops – from top bakeries and neighbourhood bistros to a New York Times approved pie shop.
