Overview
The Overland Track is an Australian bushwalking track, traversing Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park, within the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area. It's walked by more than nine thousand people each year.
Description
Tasmania’s alpine Overland Track, arguably the most famous multiday walk in Australia, is a 65km, five- to seven-day odyssey (with backpack) through incredible World Heritage-listed mountainscapes, from Ronny Creek near Cradle Mountain to the shores of Lake St Clair. If you have experience with multiday hikes, solid fitness and are well prepared for Tasmania’s erratic weather, it’s a very achievable independent adventure, with the track threading between mountains rather than grinding over them. Inexperienced walkers should consider signing up with a guided walking group.
