RUN DETAILS |
Minimum Run Duration: 5km/60min
Maximum Run Duration: 65km/12hrs Technical Difficulty: Advanced (Prior Ultra-Running experience required) Steepness: Undulating to very steep mountain slopes Please note, Find Your Feet has special permission from the Tasmanian National Parks & Wildlife Service to conduct this tour. This opportunity will be strictly limited to Find Your Feet & low guest numbers to respect the region & other users of the track. The Overland Track has a booking system for walkers and as such, all guests on this tour will be supporting the process established to protect this fragile wilderness Park. Trail running is restricted to this commercial tour operation, the formal Cradle Mountain Ultra, or guests with private approvals directly through the Tasmanian National Parks & Wildlife Service. The Overland Track is a remote trail through a wilderness environment. Once individuals leave the Cradle Mountain start, there is no direct access to the trail for 65km until Lake St Clair. In the event of emergencies, access to the track is via helicopter. For non emergency incidents, individuals will be required to return to Cradle Mountain, proceed to Lake St Clair or in worst-case-scenarios exit via the Arm River Trail. This can be a distance of up to 25km. Therefore, it is a strict requirement that guests embarking on this tour have high-level trail & ultra running experience and begin the tour with no medical or injury concerns. All guests will be required to carry additional mandatory gear and all precautions will be taken by Find Your Feet Management & guides. Guests will also be required to have travel insurance to cover emergency scenarios and helicopter evacuation should it be required. The Cradle Mountain- Lake St Clair National Park can experience severe weather conditions. Therefore, Find Your Feet cannot ascertain with 100% assurance that guests will be able to complete the full 65km traverse of the Overland Track. Conduction of this extreme run will be at the discretion of Find Your Feet Management and will be non-negotiable. In the event of severe weather that restricts access to the full track, guests will participate in a series of shorter runs within the National Park, with vehicle transfer between Cradle Mountain & Lake St Clair. PLEASE NOTE, for safety reasons, we cannot guarantee your booking until we have assessed your ability to complete the 65km distance within the timeframe we have available. Once we receive your booking and you have completed the required forms sent to you via email, we will make contact with you to confirm your place on this tour. |
