Hi,
I'm in a group of Victorians planning to hike the South Coast Track on Nov. We are taking an emergency beacon.
I thought it might be prudent to get insurance that would cover us against anyone having to be choppered out in the case of a medical emergency.
Does anyone have any recommendations?
I've contacted these guys:
https://www.1cover.com.au/travel-insura ... insurance/
https://service.travelinsurancedirect.c ... g-trekking
However, I'm not sure about the answers I got. In both cases, there seems to be no hesitation in saying yes. But when I read their Product Disclosure Statements there seem to be all these exclusions.
I get the impression that hardly anyone will cover you for doing something daft like getting lost. Fair enough. However, in the unlikely event that someone gets hurt it would be nice to not get hit with a huge bill for a chpper.
Thanks
Regards
Brett Sh
