ABW (Adelaide Bushwalkers)

Exciting to see Tasmania investing in a completely NEW overnight walk. $40million to build it, and $288-$576 to walk it.

A scenic, multi-day walk is being finalised for Tasmania to rival the popular Overland Track. But some critics worry about the region's high rainfall, with about 216 days of rain a year.

Reminding everyone to think about trail safety and navigating in unfamiliar terrain. A good outcome using a PLB device.

As Bron stood atop a ridge, trying to find her way back to the Larapinta Trail, all she could think about was the Victorian hiker whose body was retrieved from the same track only a month before.

We have been advised there’s a small ‘walk around’ in place while they build a new Northern Trailhead near Parachilna Gorge. Check the Heysen Trail website for more detail if you’re heading up that way 👍🏼

Change is coming to the Heysen Northern Trailhead!
Work will commence in early May.

The Friends of Heysen Trail initiated a rejuvenation of the now tired Trailhead that's helped hikers cross the line for more than 30 years. The new design will enhance the sense of starting or completing the 1200km adventure.
New to the Trail or a long-term hiker & supporter? Anyone who has or will enjoy the Trail is encouraged to donate to this exciting project: https://heysentrail.asn.au/shop/donation/

Here’s what our northern neighbours are up to! Looks worthwhile… and perhaps something our club could offer if there was enough support. If anyone is experienced with grant writing, reach out to the committee and perhaps you could assist with applications?
