About Journey Era

Journey Era is the personal travel blog of Jackson Groves, an Australian adventure traveller and journalism graduate who launched the site in April 2016. Jackson writes long-form adventure and destination guides focused on hikes, waterfalls, beaches and high-adrenaline experiences. The site has grown substantially, with more than 1,100 posts in its sitemap and a reported 750,000 monthly views as of April 2021, and it publishes roughly three posts a month. Readers will find practical, experience-led guides to multi-day treks, island trips and places to stay, and the posts are packed with the author’s own photos.

If you want to read a travel blog that feels like a returned expedition report, this is it. Jackson writes with a reporter’s clarity and the eye of a photographer, turning trail notes into readable, actionable guides. The recent walking-holidays piece reads like a field guide, naming routes, distances and where to sleep or eat, which is exactly the kind of useful detail you get across the site. What stands out are the long, adventure-first guides - hikes, island roundups and mountain treks - backed by many on-the-ground photos. The blog is active, adding a few solid posts every month and sitting on a very large archive of country and trail content.
