Navigation Guidance
GPS devices and smartphones should be used only as a supplement to traditional navigation tools—not as your sole method of route-finding. Carry and know how to use a paper map, compass, and manual navigation skills.
All GPX files available on this site are provided for reference only. They are not a substitute for proper trip planning or navigation training.
Why GPS Distances May Vary
Distances listed on Trail Hiking Australia are based on mapped routes, GPX data, and field verification. Variations of up to 5–10% are common due to differences in GPS accuracy, tracking methods, terrain, and route choices—even when recorded on the same hike using different devices. Please factor this into your planning.
