We have just completed 11 days of walking with 12 nights accomodation self guided with Auswalk. The organisation worked perfectly for us. The walk notes worked well as we had no problem finding our way and at no time felt more information was necessary. The accomodation and food provided was the best availlable in the locations we stayed and our hosts couldn’t have been more welcoming or helpful. The couple of evening meals we had to organise ourselves in one of the small villages we stayed were difficult because of the limited options in the village. However this is no fault of Auswalks and we understand they are doing everything they can to make alternative arrangements. The walking is generally relatively easy without any significant steep climbs or descents however there are some long distances with some days over 25km. We found it was possible to reduce the length of some of these days without feeling we had missed anything significant. The walking was varied with a mix of forest, river valley including some gorge, long sandy beaches and cliff top capes. Wildlife encountered included several emus, wallabies, echidnas and koalas, fortunately only one snake.We were lucky enough to have perfect walking weather for our first 10 days but did suffer on the last day with temperatures in the high 30s. This was soon forgotten after a couple of cold beers at our final destination. Many thanks to the whole team at Auswalks.

I was a member of a group that did sections of the Great South West Walk on a self-guided basis, customised by Auswalk to the group’s requirements. All the details and logistics were handled by Auswalk, and everything worked like clockwork. The notes were good and the maps provided by Auswalk were outstanding.
Both of the places we stayed at were obviously familiar with dealing with Auswalk and all the arrangements, including the drop-offs and pick-ups went without a hitch. On the two longest days, the arrangements provided options for drop-offs allowing some shortening of the days concerned, which the B&B hosts (who provided the transport) were happy to work with.
The arrangements included some self-catering and the B&B proprietors were very helpful in assisting with this aspects.

A well organised walk. Accomodation and meals were excellent and the flexibility of the hosts and taxis enabled us to adapt our days to suit our needs. We would book with Auswalk again.

We recently completed the Great South West Walk self guided trek facilitated by auswalk and what wonderful walking holiday it was! I can’t imagine a better introduction to the beauty and wonders Australia has to offer. We trekked though the forest, along a limestone gorge with the Glenelg River flowing peacefully below followed by a dramatic coastline complete with sandy beaches and rocky outcrops continuously pounded by and incredibly blue ocean. And that was just the scenery. First time sightings of kangaroos, wallabies, echidnas, emus, a countless variety of new birds and snakes added to the down-under experience. As fabulous as all that was, I have to say each BnB also holds a special memory of outstanding welcomes and accommodations. Also, a huge thank you to the team at auswalk for their complete and accurate descriptions of trail conditions and times.It took the worry out of the day and left us to enjoy.
What a wonderful country! I am already planning my next trip for 2019.
