GENERAL INFO
Please Note: The walks have been affected by fire but the regrowth makes the Wilderness Track look completely different. The tracks are dry, firm and well cared for on Kangaroo Island. Most of the walks are easy to moderate. The easy walks are great for first-timers; however, the experienced hikers won’t be disappointed as there is ample opportunity to walk challenging distances and explore some fascinating geological sites. The new wilderness trail as you’d expect is extremely well cared for and makes for excellent walking.
This trip operates with a pair of expert guides leading the way, providing the flexibility to walk at a pace that suits you and offering a choice of easier or harder walking options along the way.
Pre and post-tour accommodation: There are many hotels in Adelaide. We pick up from and drop off at the Terrace Hotel, 208 South Terrace, Adelaide. The tour will start at approximately 8.30 am (dependent on the ferry crossing) at the Terrace Hotel. We arrive back in Adelaide at approximately 5.00 pm on the last day
