Overland Track

The Overland Track is a 65km point-to-point alpine traverse through the heart of the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area. Running from Cradle Mountain to Lake St Clair, the route passes through dramatic glaciated valleys, ancient rainforests, and high moorlands. Under the management of Parks & Wildlife Service Tasmania, the trail offers a deep connection to Tasmania's unique natural heritage, including the endemic King Billy Pine and high dolerite peaks. The route consists of a mix of well-maintained boardwalks, exposed rocky ridges, and forested sections that can become muddy during sustained rainfall.

Pen y Fan is the highest peak in South Wales (886m) and the crown jewel of the Brecon Beacons National Park. While thousands stream up the 'tourist path' from the Storey Arms every day, the true mountaineer's route is the Beacons Horseshoe starting from the Neuadd Reservoir. This challenging 10-mile (16km) circular route climbs steeply onto the Craig Fan Ddu ridge, walks the long, grassy skyline over four peaks—including the 'diving board' rock at Fan y Big, Cribyn, Pen y Fan itself, and Corn Du—before descending back to the valley. It provides magnificent 360-degree views over the sheer, glaciated northern faces of the peaks down into the emerald Welsh valleys.
