If you’re new to caravanning, Victoria is the perfect place to start. From the winding Great Ocean Road to the crisp mountain air of the High Country, there’s a landscape — and a caravan — for every type of traveller.
At Stallion Caravans, we’ve spent over a decade building caravans that go the distance. Handcrafted in Australia, our range covers every journey: Semi Off-Road, Off-Road, and Off-Grid — built for reliability, comfort, and the freedom to explore without limits.
