I was really wanting to book this trip and it has indicated there is only one spot left. However, when i try to put my details in it says I can't as it requires two people?

Being a serious Grade 5 wilderness trek/hike/camp, it is very limited in numbers and requires Tasmanian National Park ticketed registration in advance. The Tasmania National Parks allow 12 people per day only. So, there are no positions currently available; however, people to change their minds at the last minute.

My husband and I are really interested in this tour. It sounds incredible. We are both Personal Trainers and feel like we are strong and fit enough to do it. Our outdoor exp is just day hiking trails, not overnight or over big rock climbing like this hike is expected to have. However we are keen to learn and are confident we can do it. We have already spoke about practicing rockclimbing and overnight camps to practice and break in all our gear before we get there. I go for regular 10km walks with a weight vest which will hopefully come in handy as well. We are confident the 7 days of high-impact activity will be ok for us. I just wanted to check if this sounds ok for you for us to join. If you're keen to have us join, any advice on prep you have would be great too.

The tour actually starts on the 1st December for 7 days. Does this date (1st December) work for both of you?

The Traverse is not for the faint of heart, it's one of the hardest hikes in Australia - but with Climbing Mountains I felt completely safe.

I’m an experienced hiker, but I wanted the expert guidance of Climbing Mountains for my Western Arthurs Traverse (Tasmania) adventure. Well before the trip, Chris, Mat and the team ensured I was well prepared and set very realistic expectations. On the trip itself, my guide Mat was an absolute professional. He kept us safe and altered our plans to account for some epic bad weather. The Traverse is not for the faint of heart, it’s one of the hardest hikes in Australia - but with Climbing Mountains I felt completely safe. Mat’s guidance and knowledge of the range, as well as his wealth of expertise and information, was exceptional. Climbing Mountains offers epic adventure at reasonable prices, and I will 1000% be planning my next adventure with them.Show more

  This trek sounds amazing, I've done many tough treks and like a demanding adventure. But that's okay, I will wait until the following year and definitely book with you!

  Thanks so much for your response. The trip sounds great but we can't get the first week of December off work. I'll keep my eyes on your page to hear about all future tour dates and hopefully we can join you on another trip in future. This trek is definitely one I'm keen to do so I'll be in touch.
