How to take the best walks on Australia's wild side


One piece of advice that is key for anyone planning a holiday: Do your research.

You don't want to end up in a luxury hotel that is next to a major building site, or find that jellyfish make it dangerous to swim at your chosen beach resort.

Making sure you make the right choice is super-important if you are considering splashing out big bucks on one of Australia's famous - and sometimes challenging - multi-day walks.

A new book showcasing the best long-distance walks in Australia is perfect for anyone planning their next multi-day adventure.

Do you you need a tent? How much food will you need?

One of the greatest challenges can be searching through the options to find the right trail for you you and your abilities.

To help with this, editor and writer Wendy Bruere has assembled a team of experienced Australian writer-hikers, to survey and showcase the best multi-day walks Australia has to offer in the new book: Australia's 50 Best Multi-Day Walks.

Descriptions, essential planning information, tips, maps and photography will help inspire, and guide readers towards the right choice for their vacation.

Bruere is a Sydney-based writer and editor, specialising in outdoor adventure and climate change. She has combined with a team including John and Monica Chapman, who have been writing walking guides for Australians for over 40 years.

Australia's 50 Best Multi-Day Walks. Publisher: Woodslane Press. RRP: $39.99. Available at bookstores and at www.woodslanepress.com.au
