How do I choose a Melbourne-to-Adelaide road route?

I can drive between the cities and want to decide whether scenery and stopovers justify a longer route.

    Check daylight, roadworks and weather before committing to a long coastal driving day.

    Choose the inland route when time is tight, or give the coast several days if the Great Ocean Road is the point of the trip. Treat the scenic option as a journey with overnight stops rather than a same-day transfer.
