Why not follow the path less travelled this autumn

With the temperatures dropping and copper-hued leaves falling, autumn is the perfect season to lace up your hiking boots, get your steps in, and soak up some wilderness as you explore Australia’s finest trails.

We’re spoilt for choice with thousands of kilometres of trails weaving through culturally significant sites, lush rainforests, rugged outback backdrops and breathtaking coastal scenery. Whether you’ve got a few hours to spare or a day or two, Mother Nature’s got your back.

You’ll benefit from the physical activity, experience the tranquillity of being immersed in nature and be blown away by the sheer beauty of your backyard. And what better time to experience them than the season where you won’t catch frostbite or get seared by the sun?
