Highlights

  • Experience the serenity of winter as you trek through Cradle Mountain National Park's tranquil, snow-covered landscapes.
  • Capture stunning photographs of frozen lakes and unique alpine creations along the Overland Track's quieter winter trail.
  • Discover the beauty of the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area with every step on this unforgettable seven-day trek.
  • Enjoy lightweight camping gear and expert guidance, making your winter adventure both comfortable and enriching.

A seven day trek along the Overland Track during winter, when the Cradle Mountain National Park turns into a winter wonderland. Walking the Overland Track during winter is a very different experience to summer and offers a more serene and tranquil environment.

The trail is much quieter, the lakes are frozen and the snow ensures the surrounding landscapes provide unique photographic opportunities. Fit and hardy walkers who are prepared to camp during winter and carry a full pack will truly enjoy this unforgettable winter trek along the graded trail through the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area. Every step will lead to new discoveries and some of Mother Nature’s finest alpine creations.

This winter itinerary is designed to travel at a pace to allow you to fully appreciate the park’s many highlights and side trips you’ll undertake along the way. Food drops and modern lightweight equipment will keep your backpacks relatively light while your experienced guides will help bring the track to life and teach first time snowshoers the finer points of this popular style of alpine travel.
