Which tassie walk?

[Pat]

Hi all,
Just registered.
I'm planning a 2017 tassie hike and would like some suggestions.
I did the overland last winter, and vowed to do a Tassie walk every year.
Can anyone suggest another walk of similar duration and epic-ness.
I'm a reasonably experienced bush walker, but will be going solo this time so will need to consider that.

Thanks,

Perhaps the South Coast Track? Depends what time of year you're planning to walk?

Thanks for your reply Geevesy.
I'm a mountain man so haven't really looked at the SCT. As for time of year, I prefer winter, which is really limiting my options as a solo walker. The classics (Mt Anne, Frenchmans cap, Western Arthurs) all seem too risky.

Going up onto the Central Plateau via Higgs or Ironstone tracks and doing a bit of wandering might suit, depending on how you are with off-track navigation.

Alpine areas down here do tend to be a bit more full on than the Overland. You'd get some good shorter trips (2-3 days) by heading out to Stacks from Ben Lomond ski village, or at Mt Field. But other than Anne or Frenchmans (which aren't the best idea in winter) it's hard to get something tracked of a similar duration and distance to the Overland.
