As the weather warms up, avid hikers in Victoria have a new online resource to explore—Trail Hiking, a website offering comprehensive and user-friendly information on over 170 hiking trails across the state.
Founded by passionate hiker Darren and Julie Edwards, Trail Hiking is their way of sharing their love for the outdoors with fellow hikers. Darren explains, “Hiking has always been a part of our lives. Over the years, we’ve meticulously tracked our hikes, taken photos, written detailed trail notes, and connected with other hikers. Through these experiences, we realized how hard it was to find reliable and detailed trail information online. That’s when we decided to create Trail Hiking, to make it easier for others to discover new adventures.”
TrailHiking.com.au offers detailed descriptions, maps, photos, elevation profiles, and GPX files for each trail. The website’s intuitive design allows hikers to search for trails based on location, difficulty, distance, or even by an alphabetical listing. Unlike many other hiking websites, which only feature a handful of popular trails with limited details, Trail Hiking offers thorough information for hikers of all skill levels, from beginners to seasoned adventurers.
Whether you’re looking for a leisurely walk to a scenic lake or planning a challenging multi-day trek in the Alpine National Park, Trail Hiking provides essential resources to guide you. The site also hosts GPX files for all trails, making it easy to navigate both the trail and its starting point.
As the website continues to expand, Trail Hiking is focused on becoming Australia’s most comprehensive, free resource for hiking trails, offering not only detailed trail information but also gear reviews, helpful tips, and trip planning advice. To help grow the site’s database, Darren and Julie are encouraging the hiking community to submit their favorite trails and GPX files, fostering a collaborative space where outdoor enthusiasts can share their experiences.
Trail Hiking is committed to providing hikers with the information they need for safe and enjoyable outdoor adventures. Visit www.trailhiking.com.au today and join the growing community of explorers!
