Light Packs – Authentic Adventures
Wilderness Expeditions specialises in guided, tent-based Tasmanian Bushwalking.
We are a Tasmanian-owned company driven by the idea that guided adventures shouldn’t have to be dumbed down, and that the wild should be accessible, without being modified. Our solution to this is carefully selecting the lightest possible gear, employing experienced, highly capable guides and fine-tuning our logistics to deliver genuinely wild experiences that are both achievable and affordable.
Wilderness Expeditions lets you enjoy world class hikes with 10kg packs, real food and real coffee.
We run regular guided itineraries on the Overland Track as well as other classic walks such as the Walls of Jerusalem, Frenchman’s Cap and the South Coast Track. We also have to capacity to run guided walking tours anywhere in the state, customised to the needs of your group.
We just finished an AMAZING six days on the Overland track and we all reckon this company was as close to perfect as you could get!
This is my second tour with Wilderness Expeditions and it was just as good. The guides are lovely and very knowledgeable so you get the best experience. We saw wombats and echidnas, swam in waterfalls and lakes and relaxed each night with great food and laughs. I highly recommend Ben and his team for expert guiding and a great experience of Tassie’s wilderness!
Stop your research – go with Wilderness Expeditions. You won’t regret it!
What a fantastic trek. The whole team at Wilderness Expeditions were exceptional. We had Nick and Michael as our guides and Em taking us out on the last day. The gear they supply is top quality and light weight. The boys cooking skills are top notch, beautiful meals and plenty of it.
The excellent quality of the pack and tent meant they were perfect for the conditions, while still being super lightweight. My pack was only about 10-12kgs, including tent!
The guides carried the food for everyone, and managed to whip up spectacular dishes. Every meal we were pleasantly surprised with the quality and taste of the food, all made as one pot wonders, from things carried by the guides.
