WILDER TRAILS TASMANIA
Welcome to Wilder Trails Tasmania, your go-to guide for the best trail running sites in lutruwita / Tasmania.
Our wilder places needs wilder people. Our vision is to foster an empowered community of trail enthusiasts who inspire one another to grow, play & perform wilder whilst stepping up for our wilder places. We wish to do this by highlighting toe-tingling trails for playing wilder, whilst providing an aspirational, educational & non-competitive platform for us all to grow & perform wilder.
What is Wilder Trails?
Wilder Trails is a community project by Find Your Feet Australia, inspired by the original Kunanyi-Wellington Loop (est. 2016). This non-competitive challenge has since evolved, offering a variety of trails across Tasmania, showcasing lesser-known routes that might otherwise be overlooked.
While Wilder Trails is trail running-focused, the routes can also be enjoyed as day walks or multi-day hikes. Developed with input from trail enthusiasts across the state, this project supports Tasmania’s regional communities and businesses, encouraging visitors to explore local hospitality.
The proceeds from Wilder Trails merchandise help maintain the project and support community-driven environmental and cultural initiatives. We aim to create safe, culturally and environmentally sensitive routes for all to enjoy, while promoting responsible trail use and a deeper appreciation for Tasmania’s unique landscapes and communities.
We hope trail runners and hikers alike can explore Tasmania’s most stunning trails and leave with lasting memories, knowledge, and a desire to protect and enhance our environment.
How YOU are helping
Your participation can help us to rejuvinate our natural landscapes as well as invigorate our regional Tasmanian communities. Before & after each challenge we encourage you to play local, stay local and support local. Furthermore, all proceeds from the sale of badges & lapel pins will be reinjected back into this project to allow us to: create new routes; support our chosen community partners; and participate in activation projects that will help all living systems & cultures to continue to grow, play & perform wilder.
