Default Travel Insurance to Australia

Hello there,

I'm about to go backpacking in Australia - I'm incredibly excited. Unfortunately, the excitement is dimmed everytime I think about setting up backbacking insurance for the trip. Can anyone help me out? Where's good for backbacking travel insurance, and what do I need to look out for?

Backpacker Travel Insurance Australia
Backpacker insurance travel is a policy that is specifically designed for students and professionals who want to go on a long extended holiday that combines trekking, hiking and camping in the lap of nature. The basic aim of the cheap backpacker insurance travel policy is to take complete care of backpacker 's medical expenses in case he or she falls sick in foreign land.

Why would you need any type of backpacker insurance? The idea of being a backpacker is traveling light so if you lose something then it should be easily replaced at a nearby camping store, right? Backpaker gear isn't expansive. As long as you stay away from the cities no one will steal anything from you in Australia. If you did fall sick isn't that covered in your basic travel insurance?
