Overland Track - John & Monica Chapman

Contains comprehensive track notes for walking the Overland Track in Tasmania plus major sidetracks which include Cradle Mountain, Barn Bluff, Lake Will, Mt Oakleigh, Mt Ossa, Fergusson Falls, Hartnett Falls and Pine Valley. Intended for those walking the Overland Track only. The guide has colour topographic maps of the entire track plus gradient profiles of the track and major sidetrips. It has been designed so that it can be used in conjunction with the Walkers Handbook to the Overland Track (published by Department of Parks & Wildlife) as it does not include any of the notes on plants and animals that are described in that booklet.

The Overland Track is Australia's best known, multi-day walking track. It traverses the Cradle Mountain - Lake St Clair National Park - a large wilderness area replete with spectacular scenery. The track passes rugged mountain ranges, meanders beside alpine lakes and crosses windswept moors. Ancient rainforests and waterfalls also feature along this well-maintained walking track. This guide includes - 

• Detailed day by day track notes
• Colour maps and photographs
• Gradient profiles
• Notes for all marked side tracks
