The convoy started in Hobart on April 17. It travelled to Queensland before ending in Canberra on Sunday with a rally on the lawns of Parliament House.
It all aimed to stop the Carmichael coal mine in central Queensland.
There were about 2500 people at the rally, including those who had travelled from Dubbo to be part of the movement.
ALSO MAKING NEWS:
Speaking at the rally, Dr Brown said neither big party was willing to stop the Adani mine and secure the planet for Australia's kids.
"There will be no divine intervention, it is up to us," he said.
Rallies were also held in towns and cities along the way, such as Melbourne and Albury.
Dr Brown stopped in Dubbo on Thursday to charge his car with the Tesla SuperChargers in the Western Plains Cultural Centre car park.
The chargers were installed last month with the goal of encouraging tourists to stop in Dubbo.
