  1. It takes just over 6 hours if you don't stop anywhere along the way.  However, there are many nice places to stop & visit, and the scenery is spectacular for most of the drive, so count on at least a few stops for photo opportunities.  It can take longer during peak holiday periods (Christmas, New Years, Easter etc) due to high volumes of traffic (many with boats, caravans, trailers, etc) as it is single-lane highway the whole way, with limited overtaking opportunities in some places.


  2. 7hrs 15 mins - It's 486 km.
