South Coast Track in Australia is one of our top 10 coastal hikes in the world.
BUT — it’s a challenging walk in a region of Tasmania exposed to harsh weather conditions. There are no huts along the track. Track conditions are often difficult. Walkers must be fully self-sufficient, well-equipped and experienced.
Hire a guide if this worries you.
