Best Answer

Leichhardt made a total of three expeditions.

The longest was his first, and it took fourteen months.In October 1844, he left from Jimbour, on the Darling Downs, on an expedition to find a new route to Port Essington, near Darwin. The 4800 km overland journey reached its destination on 17 December 1845. His journey took so much longer than expected that a friend of Leichhardt's composed a funeral dirge for him, expecting to never see him again.

Leichhardt's second expedition was his shortest. He left from the Darling Downs in Queensland to head for Perth in Western Australia. However, wet weather and malaria forced the party to return after they had travelled only 800km.
