Tasmania Hiking and Summit Chasing June 2026
Mens Trip
Join me next June for this winter hiking trip to Tasmania.
We will start in Launceston and then work our way into central Tasmania and attempt to summit Mt Roland, Cradle Mountain, Mount Rufus and Mt Murchison. We then return to Launceston for a night on the town.
All these summits are day walks and there can be alternative hikes for those of you not so keen on a summit on 1 day or the other
You may think Im crazy walking in winter but from experience I can tell you that the weather is normally very stable and clear. Cold yes, but its great for hiking and adds to the fun. I have walked the Overland Track many times and always in winter. In my opinion, its the best time of year to hike in Tassie.
