The Overland Track is Australia's most famous multi-day trek, offering an magnificent traverse of the World Heritage Wilderness. The 70km track winds its way through a sub-alpine landscape of soaring dolerite peaks, glacial lakes, heathlands, tall forests and waterfalls. The Overland Track is an exceptional trek and also offers access to the peaks and wilderness beyond. 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 adavnce. Many trekkers choose to join a guided bushwalk that provides food, equipment and safety in this rugged environment.
