DESCRIPTION
Tasmania is well known for its vast expanses of untamed wilderness, and maybe no other region quite encapsulates the raw power of nature more so than the South West.
Connecting with Mt Field National Park across a valley corridor of ancient rainforest, the combined extent encompasses a significant portion of what makes up the UNESCO listed Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area – a site protected for its outstanding natural and cultural values.
Subsequently, both avid hikers and recreational walkers alike have long been drawn to this remote pocket of the state for its magnificent scenery.
Over the course of four sensational days – explore rugged peaks, numerous waterfalls, and discover unique endemic flora and fauna, all while carrying your day pack only.
Travel with experienced Tasmanian guides on a diverse itinerary which includes some of the best walks in the region – with all snacks and meals provided, staying overnight in comfortable locally owned accommodation.
Please note – due to the mountainous nature of the terrain, and the famously changeable weather conditions – this walk is graded moderate to hard, meaning a good level of fitness is required. Quality wet weather gear is also essential. Your guides may choose to alter the planned itinerary accordingly if deemed necessary, however we will always provide the most scenic walking options possible, based on the local conditions.
