in store for us

The first thing we did in Saigon was look at our options for travelling north in the country towards our final destination before entering China - Hanoi. As the country is similar in length to Italy, we knew that several hundred kilometres were in store for us - approximately 1600.

What is the meaning of 'in store for us'? My guess would be 'waiting for us to explore' based on the context given.

Thanks!
