Introduction

I started getting into hiking back in 2006, and have been hiking the 1200km Heysen Trail from Cape Jervis to Parachilna Gorge in South Australia. I've been hiking a couple of weekends a month each year during April to October, I expect to complete the trail in August of 2008. All of my blog entries for this are located in a dedicated Heysen Trail blog.

Meanwhile, Kate and Tim suggested we hike The Overland Track, in Tasmania, in January of 2009. The Overland Track is a six-day, 65km trek through Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area from Cradle Mountain to Lake St Clair.

We've done a little preparation for this carry-all-your-stuff and camp out trek, but we need to do a lot more yet. That "don't worry - it's 2 years away" complacency has set in! So I have decided to include some of this hikes here, some I've done with Kate and Tim, and some I have done with bush walking clubs.

Now, for a few inspirational photos of The Overland Track:
