The Greatest Australian Trekking Route
from: Oze ParrotEach Australian State is individual in one way or another, and provides Adventure travelers with a variety of trekking activities from which, to choose. The choice of course, is up to the trekkers and the level of activity that they wish to persue. There is a unique Australian trek available that will satisfy the needs of the most adventurous trekkers, as well as take them on a historic journey through three of the mainland states.
The Australian Bicentennial National Trail follows the paths of the pioneer stockmen and includes stock routes, stagecoach tracks, pack horse trails and country roads. It is the longest designated trekking trail of it's kind in the world and takes the adventure trekker on a 5,330 kilometer journey from Cooktown, North Queensland to Healesville in Victoria.
The trail meanders through rugged mountains, their valleys, gorges and snow clad slopes, harsh arid plains, wilderness areas and tropical rainforests, on an unforgettable journey that extends for almost the entire length of the east coast of Australia. This historic trail, also links no less than eighteen national parks that will present the trekker with some spectacular Australian scenery, exciting bush walks and close up views of native flora and fauna.
Pioneers first traversed the trail on horseback, and when the Australian Bushman, R.M. Williams reestablished the track in 1971, the trail was intended for horse riders and bush walkers. In the mean time, the popularity of the track has been extended to a multitude of activities including fishing, boating, mountain bike riding, abseiling and fossicking.
When deciding to trek the Bicentennial National Trail the adventurer can rest assured that there is no commitment to complete the trek. The adventure trekker may start at one end of the trail and trek the entire length of the trail, which would take a year or more. On the other hand, portion of the trail may be selected to traverse at leisure and to enjoy.
Any part of the trail is within easy reach of civilization should the need arise for emergency services.
Certain parts of the trail are seasonal, with the northernmost part of the trail being inaccessible during the wet season. The snowfields of southern New South Wales and Victoria are more readily accessible during the warmer months.
Come to Australia and trek the Bicentennial National Trail, it's the only one in the world.
