Embark on a challenging adventure with Peak Learning Adventures. You’ll hike to the top of Australia’s highest peaks over 4 days.
Walk alongside guides with over 20 years’ experience in backcountry terrain. The trek will test your endurance skills as you traverse rough, rocky tracks, snowdrifts in spring and snowgrass sections that require waterproof footwear with ankle support. All 10 peaks are over 2000 metres in altitude and have some strong uphill inclines. The second day of the walk is most challenging and can involve a dusk descent down the mountain.
At night, relax in your comfortable Thredbo accommodation. The trip kicks off with traditional welcome drinks and all meals and lift tickets are provided.
Peak Learning Adventures is a licensed commercial tour operator with a Parks Eco Pass.
