About us
Trail Hiking Australia (TAS) is a hiking group for people who enjoy getting outdoors and exploring Tasmania's trails in a safe, welcoming, and inclusive environment.
The group focuses on building a supportive community that encourages people of all experience levels to enjoy hiking with confidence. Our events aim to make Australia’s wild places more accessible while promoting good preparation, shared responsibility, and respect for the outdoors.
We host a wide range of activities. Some hikes are suited to moderate and experienced walkers, while others are slower paced on easier terrain and may include urban walks. Everyone is welcome, and there is no expectation that you must be an experienced hiker to join.
To help members prepare for hiking and build outdoor skills, Trail Hiking Australia also provides a large library of practical articles and detailed trail information, with over 3,800 documented trails available at👉 https://www.trailhiking.com.au
Important: When setting up your Meetup profile, please ensure your profile photo clearly shows your face. This is a requirement for participating in group hikes. Please also read our code of conduct for attending hikes at👉 https://www.trailhiking.com.au/attending-hikes/
We look forward to seeing you out on the trail.

Let's tackle Cathedral Rock again!
Cathedral Rock Walking Track Parking, 111 Betts Rd, Neika, TA, AUI think that climbing Cathedral Rock should be on everyone's annual calendar! I think it might be my test to see if I 'still have it'.
The Cathedral Rock walk is about 9km and 4-hours return. We will climb 600m elevation so have your mountain goat legs ready!
Bring warm clothes and a hot drink because the summit can be windy and cold but will promise amazing views.
Expect 2+ hours to get up to the top. We will have a break for lunch and then a quicker trip home.
We travel over the Potato Fields so make sure your shoes have
good ankle support and consider poles for a part of the climb.For more track details look here.
Cathedral Rock Track (8.5km), Wellington Park, Tasmania (trailhiking.com.au)Meet in the car park before 10am for an on-time departure. The start is quite a drive so make sure you allow enough time to get there. We can always have a cuppa before we go.
Cheers Jane
