Tasmania's Premier Long Distance Walking Track
Have a listen to our latest audio podcast for a taste of what it is like to walk the Overland Track!
It's a six day walk, travelling 65 kilometres through the heart of the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area.
The Overland Track from Cradle Mountain to Lake St Clair is a true wilderness walk which travels through spectacular dolerite mountains, near beautiful waterfalls, through a variety of fascinating ecosystems and close to Tasmania's highest mountain, before finishing at Australia's deepest lake, Lake St Clair.
The stunning scenery and the physical challenges of this mountain walk have ensured that the Overland Track has built a national and international reputation as one of the great wilderness bushwalks.
As a result, demand for experiences on the Overland Track is high and there are concerns about environmental degradation and overcrowding. It is imperative for the track to be managed strategically to ensure it remains a sustainable, safe, world class wilderness walk. To address this issue, a Vision for the Overland Track [PDF 252 KB] was developed. A Recreation Zone Plan has been prepared to implement the changes to the Overland Track described in the vision.
