Use the Find a Hike tool to search the national trail database.

You can access it from the home page or footer on any page:
https://www.trailhiking.com.au/find-a-hike/

The interactive map allows you to pan and zoom across Australia. As the map view changes, the hike listings update dynamically to reflect the visible area.

Choosing a hike that suits you

Finding a hike is not just about location. It’s about alignment.

Before selecting a trail, consider:

• Your fitness and experience level
• The Australian Walking Track Grade
• Expected duration versus available daylight
• Weather and seasonal conditions
• Terrain and elevation gain

Use the filters to narrow options that realistically match your capability and planning window.

If unsure, choose conservatively. A shorter, well-matched hike is safer and more enjoyable than overcommitting.

How can I refine my search?

Filters allow you to narrow results based on:

• State or region
• National park or location
• Distance and estimated duration
• Trail type
• Grade (Australian Walking Track Grading System)

Filter options adjust automatically based on the map view and selections made.

This structured filtering approach helps you identify hikes that align with your experience level, available time and planning requirements.
