[ Our Focus ]
From the Top End to Tassie, and all trails in between.
Making Tracks is a platform for hikers created by hikers passionate about our beautiful backyard.
With camera in hand and journal at the ready, we want to share our appreciation for the world in these three ways.
Australia’s unique landscapes and huge biodiversity should be forever incredible. These special places are under the pump, and for every step of inspiration we receive we need to dedicate one to active protection.
The maps. The dust. Your gear and food condensed masterfully into your backpack. Where it all begins, overnight on the trail immersed in our big backyard.
Hiking through unique landscapes grants us with incredible opportunities to be inspired to create art to share. Our online collection covers overnight trails, wilderness areas, and the simple benefits of nature.
[ Fresh Tracks ]

Trail Notes – Overland Track, Tas
Deep in the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area, the Overland is a truely iconic trail – and for good reason. It’s variety of scenery is world class, with every turn of your head granting a different vista as rock, plant and climate combine in spectacularly unique fashion.
Trail Notes – Great Ocean Walk, Vic
A walk abound with stunning coastal scenery – sandy coves and beaches, rugged rocky platforms, and iconic towering sandstone cliffs and apostles. The Great Ocean Walk traverses some of the spectacular coastal scapes Victoria is renowned for, whilst winding in and out of coastal scrub and lush mountain ash rainforest.
Trail Notes – South Coast Track, Tas
The great south-west of Tasmania. For so many keen hikers, it’s a dream come true to be walking across this particular patch of earth. It draws people from all over. Like the other wild, truely remote places of the continent – the Top End, the Kimberley, the arid centre, the Bight – there’s something ultra special about the place. This is a hiking mecca of Tassie, and in the Tassie Wilderness World Heritage Area a (rather diverse and sizeable) jewel of the crown.
