Hello All,
Apologies if I've selected the wrong category.
I'm traveling to Australia this December for about three weeks and would like to take a couple of good walks. I'll intersperse the big walks with some more typical tourist activities and shorter partial day walks. I would appreciate input on which walks forum members think best fit my criteria. My itinerary is fairly open other than I want to spend at least a third of the trip in Tasmania, and don't plan on venturing too far beyond Victoria, NSW and southern Queensland (simple logistics of getting around), and I'm mostly interested in mountainous regions. I was considering the Overland Track, but it is full and I'm not too keen on being on the track with 50+ people. For Tasmania, the Jerusalem Walls is attractive, elsewhere Warrumbungles Grand High Tops and Heart of the Budawangs look good, but I'm open for any interesting and challenging.
For some background, I will be hiking solo. I have fairly extensive experience hiking, backpacking, climbing in the western USA (Alaska, Rocky Mountains, and deserts), as well internationally in NZ, Scotland, and Latin America.
Thanks,
Brand
