Bushwalking

Walking in Australian forests is one of life's most pleasurable pastimes: being with nature, feeling the presence of the trees rustling in the wind and wildlife watching your every move.

But care must be taken: GO WITH A FRIEND

Advise Rangers and Police how long you intend to stay out in the bush - just taking a compass or mobile phone is not good enough, these can fail or be lost.
