7 Great Walks of Australia

Australia is a world-class walking destination. The collection of great walks located in stunning settings includes seven high-end Australian walking journeys:

Large numbers of Red and Western Grey kangaroos, wallaroos and emus are regular sightings along the walk, and the country is littered with the stories, and often heroic failures, of early pioneers who tried to eke a living from the harsh but beautiful country.
