    		•  ADELAIDE TO SYDNEY: Via The Sturt Highway
    The road between Adelaide and Sydney travels for much of the way along the banks of the Murray and Murrumbidgee rivers and consequently, passes through many riverside towns developed when paddlesteamer trade along the river was the only way of marketing the bounties of the riverland soils.
    The road passes through the Barossa Valley, the Riverland, Sunraysia, the Hay Plains, and the Riverina regions. From the junction of the Hume Highway it leads north through Gundagai and Yass where the turn off to Canberra is, then through Goulburn and the Southern Highlands and on to Sydney.
    The following summary of the road includes general information and links to some of the towns and attractions along the way. Click on a town name for more details on the town.
