The Overland Track completed over 6 days and 5 nights. Huge thankyou to Jacob & Lucas for allowing me to edit their adventure for this Channel. Great job on your massive effort!
Join Jacob and Lucas for their epic 6-day winter hike on The Overland Track in Tasmania. Starting at Cradle Mountain and finishing at Lake St Clair, this 80km journey was physically demanding, featuring snow, freezing wind, mud, and rapidly changing conditions. See which Huts they stayed at and how they survived one of the world's greatest wilderness walks in the off-season!
