DESTINATION

THE MOUNTAINS ARE CALLING The Great Glenorchy Alpine Base Camp (Base Camp) is a brand new offering, and the folks there have prepared a number of all-inclusive, wonderfully bespoke adventure packages for you. Whether you’re a group of friends, a modern family, a father and son, a mum plus one, or all loved up; there is an adventure that will suit you (hopefully just outside your comfort zone). Wilderness first-timers are as welcome as the seasoned high alpine explorers.

CAMPING NOT CAMPING

MILES FROM NOWHERE

This wonderful seven-night package will take you to six completely different and utterly spectacular locations. You will spend some nights at the Base Camp itself and some nights in three completely different remote and beautiful locations, each within the World Heritage Area. You will be sleeping in traditional heavy wool canvas tents (stretcher beds, mattresses, and a wood-fired tent heater) when you’re not fireside at Base Camp. This is for groups of up to six and is guided.

The Great Glenorchy Alpine Base Camp team are all Glenorchy locals and know their backyard well. This five-night (minimum) adventure will see your group helicoptered to an absolutely breath-taking high alpine tarn location, where you will be guided on a three day hike through high alpine terrain to a hanging valley and down through a pristine wilderness forest to one of the waiting Land Rover Defender 4x4s for your shuttle back to Base Camp.
