Hiking 100km Alone - Overland Track
The Overland Track in Tasmania, Australia, is often considered one of the world's best multiday hikes. In early December of 2021 I completed the trail over five days and included side trips to Cradle Mountain, Mount Ossa, Mersey River Waterfalls & The Acropolis. With the main trail being immensely picturesque & relatively easygoing it's easy to why it's so highly regarded and such a popular hike.

Переглядів 2,8 тис.3 роки тому
In mid-May a mate and I hiked a 65km section of the Bibbulmun Track in Western Australia. We camped for two nights and unbeknown to us an 18km section of the trail was diverted due to a prescribed burn in the area. This meant we were forced to camp at a makeshift site for the first night & also saw us hiking along powerlines for a seemingly never-ending stretch. Overall I wasn’t a huge fan of t...

    I watched this pro hiker doing a thru hike and he was doing between min 30km to 60km daily and I was like NO FKN WAY, my feet would start talking if i walked more than 15/20km in a day and I'd be out for the rest of the week.😂 but this pace is more of what I would be able to do maybe.

    Fantastic video Josh!! Brought back memories of the Larapinta Trail which I completed in June 2021, just before your walk. It was much colder then. I liked it that you didn't give a running commentary and instead chose a gentle piano accompaniment. The walk was such a personal experience and a rare opportunity to enjoy some quiet reflection. Watching your video reminded me of how precious this time was.
