The Overland Track is Australia's most famous multi-day trek, offering a magnificent traverse of the world heritage wilderness. The 70 km track winds its way through a sub-alpine landscape of soaring dolerite peaks, glacial lakes, heathland, tall forests and waterfalls.

The Tasmanian parks and wildlife limit the number of trekkers to control the impact, a maximum of 60 trekkers per day are allowed and Overland Track Permits cost $120 per person and should be booked well in advance. Many trekkers choose to join a guided bushwalk that provides food, equipment and safety in this rugged environment.
