Australia has a varied landscape. Almost 20 per cent of Australia is desert. There it is hot
and dry with hardly any rainfall. There are mountain ranges across the whole of the east
coast, where the temperatures are sometimes below zero. There are also tropical
rainforests in the north, where it’s hot and humid. The amazing Great Barrier Reef is the
world’s largest coral reef and stretches for 2,000 km along the north-east coast. The total
length of the Australian coastline is 35,877 km, which is very long! The width of Australia
is impressive too. It takes five hours to fly from Brisbane to Perth, which is 3,614 km. If
you drove for eight hours a day, it would take 5.5 days to do the same journey. In the centre
of Australia is the beautiful Uluru (known as Ayer’s Rock outside Australia), a huge,
mysterious sandstone rock formation that looks like it changes colour at different times of
the day. It’s an important place for the Aboriginal people of the area. The highest peak is
Mount Kosciuszko in New South Wales, which reaches a height of 2,228 m. The Perth
Canyon, which attracts exotic marine life and blue whales, can be found on the east coast,
with a depth of 4,000 m.
