Go Hiking On One of Our Exhilarating Australian Trekking Tours

A hiking trip is the perfect way to explore Australia and take in its landscapes and natural beauty. Wild Trek Tours is one of the best trekking companies in Australia that offers various invigorating yet enjoyable trek tours in Tasmania, Victoria and other destinations that will have you feeling like you’ve really explored.

We are a small family run trekking company that runs Australian trekking tours as well as treks to Kokoda in the dry season, normally May to October.

Our small group trek tours in Tasmania, Victoria and beyond are guided by expert tour leaders who will show you both the must-see highlights and the hidden gems of the land. We limit our group size to 6 – 12 trekkers, and normally carry all our own packs and gear, except for Kokoda where we utilise the fantastic local porters and include a local guide.

All our Australian trekking tours include training guides and gear information, and we carry a satellite phone for all emergency situations.

Traveller Feedback

The truth is I needed this on so many levels. It started with the strongest internal command to shake myself up. After an enquiry about the trek that came up on my feed, I was set to trial a few... Read More

Pete, I cannot put into words how appreciative I am for everything. Once I digest what we have achieved I am going to – but for now – thank you for the week that was a pure gift. Read More

Thanks again for a great Easter adventure!

Fantastic, thanks Peter and Richard for a great four days

Reflecting back at the great magical Easter I had this 2023… Easter represents the rebirth… being in Wilsons Prom, meeting you and Richard and my big dreams… it kind of coming together. Read More

Oberon Bay was a real treat. Not too hard for me and my family, and Peter and Richard did well with sourcing water, and cooking for us. We swam and explored around the camp site and walked back the next... Read More

The Northern Circuit was unlike any other walk I had done before. We saw no one from start to finish and had the track and beaches all to ourselves. Chinaman’s swamp was unreal. Without Peter and Richard and their GPS... Read More

I did not think I could do the Kokoda trail! But Peter gave me a training plan that I stuck to for nearly 3 months. The walk still was hard, and we had rain for the first few days that... Read More

Although I had expected a lot, the South Coast Track met all expectations and was as beautiful and as hard as I thought it would be. I would not like to do it without Peter and Richard, who kept up... Read More

Not too far from Melbourne and a bit of scenery – this was our criteria, and the walk to Keppel's Hut was worth it. The two guides knew what they were doing and led us along the rough track to... Read More

The South West Cape circuit was an incredibly challenging trek - both physically and mentally. I was so pleased to have Peter and Richard with me, navigating difficult terrain, often with no clear track. I felt safe and well looked... Read More

"Peter and Richard," "Thanks for a fantastic hike and looking after us ladies. I have thoroughly enjoyed my weekend." "When you get to our age it’s nice to know that we can still do these things. We have raised our... Read More

It was such an amazing adventure and so grateful to finish it. Thankyou so much for your help and Richard. Love hiking with you guys xo

A Kokoda Discovery I had booked to do the Kokoda Track with Wild Trek Tours at the end of October2022. I am the manager of an Aged Care Facility with Vasey RSL, where a significant number of our residents are... Read More

Dear Peter & Richard, I am honored to have spent such a special & memorable experience with you both. I will be keen for a Kokoda trip in the near future. I have learned a lot and am inspired to... Read More

Hi Everyone, I really enjoyed the whole experience and getting to know you all a little. As Jenni predicted about herself towards the end of the trek when she thought she would end up walking like the “Tin Man”, I... Read More

Hi Pete, Thanks to you and Ricky for such a wonderful trip to the Overland Track. I’m so glad I went with Wild Trek Tours. I learned so much about backpacking, hiking, what meals not to choose for dinners (Haha!)... Read More

Morning Peter. I will send you an email when we get back and have had time to fully take in my week on the South Coast Track, but I just wanted to thank you for your guidance on the track... Read More
