Recent drier summers in Tasmania’s alpine regions have created a pressing need to accurately map and collect seeds from ancient stands of Montane Conifers.

To help achieve this goal, Tasmanian Walking Company are partnering with the Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens on two special Overland Track/Cradle Mountain Huts Montane Conifer Seed Collection Walks for the following dates:

·         29 March – 03 April, 2020, and

·         13 – 18 April 2020

This is an exclusive opportunity to experience the iconic overland track with Cradle Mountain Huts and be part of an important conservation project with the Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens.
