The Kosciuszko National Park features the highest peaks in Australia and some
of our most well known and much loved alpine landscapes. We reside over four
nights in a delightful ski lodge in the beautiful surrounds of Thredbo Village
and take off each day to explore another part of this memorable place. The trip
highlight, for many, will be the days outing to Mt. Kosciuszko and the walk to
Blue Lake. This trip is an opportunity to enjoy walking in temperate conditions
in an area bristling with colour and brightness as the heat of summer has the
rest of the country sweltering.

One of the very best walking experiences in Australia is found at Cradle
Mountain National Park. We have chosen to make a visit in February when the
areas flora comes to life and the weather is at its most stable. And what really
adds to the charm of this trip is our place of stay in the Waldheim Cabins
located right in the heart of the World Heritage area. This area has to be one
of the most picturesque landscapes in Australia and it is always verdant and
lush.

The words pristine, enchanting, lush and untouched describe so much of Australia’s fabulous natural heritage. Tasmania’s Tarkine Wilderness sits easily within this realm and a more exceptional place where you can observe the workings of nature as they have operated for millennia is hard to find. The Tarkine is simply one of the most inspiring locations found anywhere and to spend time in it’s heart, with Park Trek, for our five day experience is to be transported to a time when Australia was a part of Gondwanaland.

The dolerite formations that make Cradle Mountain such an amazing sight are
exactly what make the soaring sea cliffs of the Tasman Peninsula such an amazing
sight to behold. More dramatic than any other coastline in Australia the Tasman
Peninsula hosts an excellent network of walking trails that allow the day walker
access to a number of premier locations. Our place of stay affords us great
comfort and warmth as well as it’s own piece of coastline.

Mount Buffalo’s capacity to endear itself to those who visit it once is why we couldn’t wait to return to a place that has been at the heart of some of our best trip experiences. The combination of excellent trails, fascinating rock formations, superb views and green meadows laced with deep waterways provides all of the ingredients as a terrific place to stage a four day walking holiday. Add to that a cosy campfire plus Park Trek’s usual vibrant social buzz along with camping at Lake Catani and you have the makings of a great bush experience.

The natural world explodes with life during the month of March in Kakadu, Australia’s largest national park. During our seven days away we’ll experience the green glory of this biologically rich landscape. Driving down the Arnhem Highway with spear grass growing 3 metres high either side of the road, or perhaps being out in a monsoon rainforest when the clouds gather and the rain tumbles down through the lush growth are experiences that will stay with you forever. We’ll guide you through some of the best walks to give you one of the most amazing visual experiences you’ll find in Australia at anytime of the year.

Rising out of the surrounding broad-acre plains of western Victoria the Grampians are a dramatic collection of peaks and valleys interlaced with some excellent walking tracks. Spring is the ideal time to experience the Grampians as the streams bristle with a fresh flow, the bush is a riot of colour and the animal population comes to life. The tracks here have enjoyed recent upgrades and the area is at it’s best. Plus we have the most charming accommodation in Halls Gap, ideal for a coffee at the end of each days walking.

A trip to Australia’s Top End is one of the truly unique travelling experiences and locations in one of Australia’s most unique environments. July is arguably the best month for a walking holiday in the Top End as the temperatures are cooler and the recent rains that cease after April still have the watercourses flowing and the vegetation thriving. This trip is fully accommodated. We will also be using a luxury mini-coach for transport and all Park Trek meals will feature lots of local organic produce.

Lamington National Park, in the south east of Queensland, is a walkers
paradise. Once we’ve picked you up from the Gold Coast then we have only a very
short distance to cover before we make a start on a full and satisfying five day
walking holiday. The area has such an extensive network of trails. Included in a
days walk are pristine waterfalls, spectacular escarpments that turn molten gold
in the setting sun and dense and rich variety of plant and animal life. And to
make the trip extra special we’ve chosen to stay at the famous Binna Burra Lodge
and O’Reilly’s Guesthouse to create a wonderful walking experience.
