Best Answer

The shortest route from Cairns to Melbourne is the inland route, through Hughenden, Barcaldine, Cobar, Debiliquin and Echuca. This route covers 2816km and takes a good four days to travel (about 34 hours). The above route travels through some very isolated country. An alternative is to travel south to Rockhampton, then inland to Banana, Miles, Goondiwindi, Moree, Dubbo, West Wyalong, Howlong and Chiltern. This route is longer but there is more for the traveller to see and do along the way. The trip is 3079km in length, and takes about 37 hours.
