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 the steamy jungles of Borneo, Alaska's Arctic Tundra, the Peruvian Andes, Galapagos Islands and the shores of the Dead Sea. Their European adventures have included multi-day hikes in France, Switzerland and Italy.
One of their passions is long distance walking.
Track notes for Victoria's 250km Great South West Walk were published in:
Take A Walk in Victoria's National Parks
Their track notes for the 233km Larapinta Trail in the Northern Territory are included in:
Take A Walk in Northern Territory's National Parks
They completed the 650km Australian Alps Walking Track, from Walhalla in Victoria to Canberra, between January 1 and February 14, 2005.
Track notes and maps for this walk will be produced as an e-book and made available via the Internet until published in:
' Take A Walk in Kosciuszko National Park '.
John and Lyn rank amongst 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 are regular contributors to major outdoor and travel magazines and guidebooks, including Outdoor Australia, Wild and Lonely Planet.
They have also written a wide range of feature stories for outdoor, travel and lifestyle magazines including; 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.
Both are active members of the National Parks Association of Queensland and Brisbane Bushwalkers and lead walks for NPAQ.
