Bushwalking Tasmania

Bushwalking Tasmania is a sports club based in Launceston, Tasmania. It represents 9 bushwalking clubs from across the state, including Circular Head Walking Club, Mary's Monday Walkers, Deloraine Walking Club, Eastern Shore Ramblers, Hobart Walking Club, Launceston Ramblers Club, Launceston Walking Club, and North-West Walking Club.

The club's main objective is to unite all associations actively concerned with bushwalking and mountaineering for the protection and advancement of their mutual interests. Bushwalking in Tasmania offers a diverse range of experiences, from coastal tracks like the South Coast Track to breathtaking alpine terrain on the Overland or Western Arthurs tracks.

As Tasmania's weather is changeable throughout the year, walkers must be prepared for all conditions. The club advises contacting individual clubs for information about walking in their local area or joining club trips.

For those visiting Tasmania from other parts of the world, it's worth noting that Australians refer to walking in natural areas as bushwalking. In other countries, it may be known as hiking, rambling, trekking, tramping, or hill walking.

To ensure safety and enjoyment during bushwalking activities, the club provides technical and safety advice, walking track grading systems, and information on airlines and stoves. They also offer insurance coverage, including accident insurance and public liability insurance.
