Trail hiking guides

Downloadable guides for hiking in Australia

I’ve spent years on the trail, gathering helpful info that I’m keen to share with you. To make it easier to access, I’ve created five downloadable guides covering everything from beginner basics through to skills, safety, navigation techniques and essential gear. To assist with the ongoing development of this website, I have added a small fee for you to access these guides. Thanks for helping out by grabbing yourself a hiking guide or two (or the full set). They could make a a great gift for your hiking buddies too.

Once you purchase you will be sent an email receipt with a link to download your hiking guides. You will also be able to download them from your profile page.
