Brisbane to Hervey Bay with a caravan or motorhome
Brisbane to Hervey Bay runs 323 km from Brisbane to Hervey Bay. With a car and caravan, you're looking at 5 h 50 min behind the wheel. Our map shows it sealed the whole way.
We planned it on Motocamp's own router for a car and caravan and for a motorhome, at the sizes in the table below, so every number here comes from a real plan, not a guess.
The stops: Brisbane · Noosa Heads · Gympie · Maryborough · Hervey Bay
Is Brisbane to Hervey Bay OK for a car and caravan?
Yes, on our plan. It gets through for a car and caravan without using a road signed too low, too short or closed to caravans. Here's what to keep an eye on.
- It keeps you off 9 nearby roads with a signed limit your rig wouldn't clear, like Cultural Centre Tunnel (2.3 m high), Boundary Road (5.2 m long) and John Street (3 m high).
- Road reports change daily out here. Motocamp checks Queensland Transport and Main Roads for the day you travel.

Tell Motocamp what you drive, from an enduro bike to a 25-foot off-road caravan or a 10-metre motorhome, and it plans this trip for that vehicle: the roads it fits, the low bridges and closed roads to steer clear of, and places to stay on the way. The maps keep working where there's no signal.
