Wilderness Expeditions -Journeys with Pack Donkeys

Bushwalk, trek or hike with trained and friendly donkeys to carry your food and gear. Explore remote and rugged terrain guided by seriously experienced guides and packers. Camping in the Australian Bush is their specialty. Journeys can be overnight rambles or serious, extended walking adventures of 14 or more days. Explore some true wilderness in Tropical Far North Queensland in comfort. The pack teams carry beds, tables and chairs, good food, and your gear. Trekkers need only carry light day backpacks. During their walks, they encounter wildlife and swim in crocodile free wild rivers. The donkeys add a further dimension to your adventure as hardworking, character companions. Tasty, wholesome meals are cooked over open fires using traditional camp ovens. Enjoy a glass or two of wine with a three-course dinner, watch some bush television, discover the Southern night skies with a “walk through the stars”. Wilderness Expeditions continue the traditions of Australian packing methods used by explorers, drovers and miners. These treks have been developed during twenty years of operation. They specialise in finding places little visited by others. These treks are an authentic experience of natural travel in the Australian bush and outback.
