点评:I hiked The Overland Track with Tasmanian Walking Company recently. I had completed the same trip with them many years ago and had a hankering to return. The trip was all I remembered, and more. Amazingly helpful Guides (Beth and Linton) who were consistently upbeat, helpful and knowledgeable. And provided delicious meals. The weather gods were kind to us, which enabled side trips and lingering at scenic places. The one day we had consistent rain, crossing Pelion Gap, I was very pleased that I had brought along my own raincoat. Those with the supplied raincoats were wet, whereas I stayed dry. Similarly, I brought along my own backpack (Osprey) knowing that it fitted me, had all the features I wanted and was waterproof. So, if you're an established hiker with all the Good Gear, I'd recommend bringing it along. Huts are well appointed (hot water bottle, anyone?) and with fantastic reference material, other books, games and such.
I often say "you can't put a dollar value on happiness", and whilst hiking the Parks Tas huts option may be cheaper, if you can get a booking ... the comfort of the TWC huts and calibre of meals provided can't be under stated. To the side, though, Park Tas huts do look comfortable and have been recently upgraded.
If you have the capacity, and want to immerse yourself in this ancient and unique landscape, TWC is the way to go.
The track is a combination of some boardwalks balanced with hours of negotiating tree roots, mud patches, rocks and such. Sturdy footwear is essential as are gaiters.
翻译:我最近跟随塔斯马尼亚徒步公司徒步穿越了陆上步道。多年前我曾与他们一起完成过同样的旅程,并渴望再次重游。这次旅行让我记忆犹新。导游(Beth 和 Linton)非常乐于助人,他们始终保持乐观、乐于助人且知识渊博。他们还为我们提供了美味的饭菜。天气之神对我们很好,让我们有机会进行短途旅行并在风景名胜区逗留。有一天,我们穿过 Pelion Gap 时,一直下着雨,我很高兴自己带了自己的雨衣。那些穿着随附雨衣的人都湿了,而我却保持干燥。同样,我带了自己的背包(Osprey),因为我知道它适合我,具有我想要的所有功能并且防水。因此,如果您是一位拥有所有优质装备的资深徒步旅行者,我建议您带上它。小屋设备齐全(热水瓶,有人要吗?),还有很棒的参考资料、其他书籍、游戏等。
我经常说“幸福是无法用金钱衡量的”,虽然如果您能预订,在塔斯公园的小屋徒步旅行可能会更便宜……但 TWC 小屋的舒适度和提供的餐食质量不容小觑。不过,塔斯公园的小屋看起来确实很舒适,而且最近进行了升级。
如果您有能力,并且想沉浸在这个古老而独特的景观中,那么 TWC 是您的最佳选择。
这条路线是一些木板路的组合,需要花费数小时穿越树根、泥地、岩石等。坚固的鞋子和绑腿必不可少。
