John & Lyn Daly

          

BACK TO HOMEPAGE

John and Lyn are both experienced bushwalkers!

They have walked extensively in all Australian states and territories.
 

Everywhere they go, they find time to Take A Walk…’, regardless of the season.  Even if it’s November in Cape York, or June in Tasmania!

Overseas and Australian holidays are always planned to include one of the ‘classic’ walks.  They have trekked in Nepal, tramped in New Zealand, hiked in Canada and the US, and backpacked in diverse, out-of-the-way places like Africa's Drakensberg Range, the steamy jungles of Borneo, Alaska's Arctic tundra, the Peruvian Andes, southern Africa, Galapagos Islands and along the shores of the Dead Sea. Their European adventures have included multi-day hikes in Spain, France, Switzerland and Italy. They have climbed volcanoes in Chile, hiked around Torres del Paine in Patagonia and camped in Antarctica.

Long distance walking is a particular passion.

John and Lyn rank among Australia's most experienced bushwalking writers! They have been writing and publishing bushwalking books for many years and have turned their passion for conservation, bushwalking and travel into an occupation that allows them to spend months at a time working (walking) in the bush. 

They have also written a wide range of feature stories for outdoor, travel and lifestyle books and magazines including; Lonely Planet, Outdoor Australia and Wild, Go Camping, On The Road, Caravan & Motorhome, Caravan World, Off-Road Great Escapes, the Heart Wise Journal, Inflight Magazine and Heritage in Trust. They have had articles and photos published in metropolitan and regional newspapers in Queensland, NSW and Victoria as well as in the Washington Post.
