Map of Australia Sticker - Original UV Outdoor

The sticker that turns your van into a map of everywhere you've been.

This is the one you've seen on the back of half the vans at every big caravan park in the country - and there's a reason. Every town and every National Park across all six states and two territories is on there, so the kids can find where they are, trace where you're going next, and mark off the route with a Sharpie as you go.

It's designed and printed in regional Victoria by a small Aussie family business, and it's been going strong for over a decade. This is the Original (rainbow) colourway in the UV Outdoor permanent finish - the weatherproof, fade-resistant version built for the outside of the van.

Why this one is worth it

It's a road-trip activity, not just a decal. Ours has kept kids busy for entire stretches of the Stuart Highway. They find the next town, they argue about how far it is, they colour it in when you arrive. If you're chasing more of that, our guide on keeping kids entertained on long drives is full of the same kind of thing.

It's built for the Aussie sun. The UV Outdoor finish is weatherproof and fade-resistant - it's made to sit on a caravan exterior, a drop-down table or a toolbox through summer without going patchy or peeling at the corners.

It's a proper map. Towns and National Parks, not just capital cities. Which means it's genuinely useful for planning the next leg, not just decoration.

Non-toxic and phthalate-free. Fine to have in the van with little kids, and just as good on a playroom wall as it is on a camper.

Specifications

Where it sticks

Caravan exteriors, camper trailers, motorhomes and campervans, 4WD panels and canopies, drop-down tables, toolboxes, and rear doors. Because this is the permanent UV Outdoor finish, it's made for surfaces you want it to stay on for good.

How to apply it

1. Clean the surface properly with warm soapy water, then dry it completely. Don't skip this - dust is the number one reason stickers lift.
2. Pick a day that isn't blazing hot or freezing. A shaded, mild spot is ideal.
3. Peel the backing slowly from one corner and lay the sticker down gradually, smoothing outwards with a cloth or a credit card as you go to push out air bubbles.
4. Press it down firmly all over, especially the edges.
5. Leave it 24 hours before washing the van or driving through rain if you can.

Questions we get asked

What's the difference between UV Outdoor and the fabric removable version?
UV Outdoor is permanent and weatherproof - it's for the outside of the van, toolboxes and drop-down tables. The removable fabric version is for interior walls, fridges and windows. This listing is the UV Outdoor permanent finish.

Can I write on it?
Yes - that's half the fun. Use a permanent marker to colour in or tick off each town, park or state as you get there.

Will it fade in the sun?
It's UV-rated and fade-resistant, which is exactly what the outdoor finish is for. It's designed for Australian conditions.

How big is it, really?
40cm x 36.7cm — big enough to read the town names from a step back, small enough to fit on the back of most vans, a canopy or a toolbox lid.

Can I put it inside the van or on a wall at home?
You can, and plenty of people do — kids' bedrooms, playrooms and home offices. Just know that this finish is permanent, so pick your spot before you peel.

Is it made in Australia?
Yes. Designed and printed in regional Victoria by a small family business.

Goes well with

If you're kitting the van out, the Slide n' Dry pegless clothesline is the other small thing that makes trips easier. And for the trips themselves, our UPF50+ fishing shirts and sun-safe dresses mean less time wrestling sunscreen and more time actually exploring.
