Alpine Walking Track: Walhalla To Canberra

This classic Australian walking track takes the traveller through regions remote from civilisation with dense forests, windswept treeless ridges, deep wild valleys and high mountains.

You may walk across a land of hot sun one day, and cold wind and rain the next; spend pleasant days lazing by a mountain stream or encounter more difficult times battling a wintry storm. It is an ever-changing landscape, encompassing tall mountain forests, meadows of coloured wildflowers and snowgums gnarled and twisted from centuries of exposure to the elements.

Walk through three major alpine national parks and climb the highest mountains in Victoria, New South.

Wales and the Australian Capital Territory. These experiences and more will be the reward for those who each year, set out to journey over the rugged 750km Alpine Walking Track.

This new edition is an indispensable guide for travellers of the Alpine Walking Track.

It features revised information and alternative routes and side trips. The entire route is described, from the old Gippsland gold mining town of Walhalla to the finish on the outskirts of Canberra. It is fully illustrated, with maps and photographs and provides comprehensive details on access, distance and facilities.
