Spend four pack-free days wandering the wildlife-filled stretches of Maria Island (Wukaluwikiwayna) on a guided, portered and fully catered multi-day hike on one of the Great Walks of Australia. After ferrying from Tasmania’s east coast across the Mercury Passage, you’ll spend two days walking along the white sand and clear water beaches of the coast. Then, journey through cloud rainforests, up to the peak of Bishop and Clerk and over to the Fossil Cliffs, likely spotting furry friends and squawking birdlife between the eucalyptus trees. Enjoy nights spent sleeping at beach-side bush camps and a heritage-listed building while dining by candlelight on fresh local produce.

MEDICAL CONDITIONS
As we operate in remote areas, you will need to bring all of your own personal medications with you. While our leaders are qualified in remote area or wilderness first aid and carry satellite phones, we do not carry any emergency medications.
