We have scheduled departures each walking season.  Please enquire for specific departure dates and availability.

All of our accommodation during the walking component of our walks is exclusive to Tasmanian Walking Company guests. 

On the Overland Track we provide the only private hut accommodation nestled off the main track. The accommodation on our Bay of Fires Lodge Walk is at our private beach camp and award-winning Lodge. All accommodation is twin or double share.  There are hot showers, lounge area and a dining area.

Our pre and mid walk accommodation has been hand selected to provide the very best in style and service. The night prior to your walking itinerary you will be staying at Quamby Estate - a rural property 25 mintues west of Launceston.   The Sebel will be your comfortable, central Launceston based property mid trip to reset in between walks.

All accommodation is twin share. Single travellers may be required to share a twin room with another walker of the same gender. To guarantee a single room for the duration of the walk and city accommodation, or to guarantee your own room for city accommodation only, please request a quote at time of booking.

There is a maximum of 10 guests who can participate in this 12 day combined itinerary. Should the combined itinerary not fill to capacity, there may be other walkers who are doing either the Cradle Mountain Huts Walk or Bay of Fires Lodge Walk added to the relevant portion of your itinerary (up to 12 guests on Cradle Mountain Huts). If you are a solo traveller you will be sharing with someone of the same gender.

As long as you exercise regularly, are capable of walking an average of 10km each day you should be fine.  The Cradle Mountain Huts Walk is more physically challenging than the Bay of Fires Lodge Walk and on both walks there will be the opportunity to experience additional side trips or experiences such as kayaking on the Ansons River (Bay of Fires Lodge Walk) if you would like.

If you have any concerns relating to fitness, please call us on 03 6392 2211 or email bookings@taswalkingco.com.au.

On the morning of your departure, the guides will carry out a thorough gear check to ensure you have suitable gear and help you reduce your pack weight.
