One of the most challenging hikes you can do in Europe. We started were we ended our last tour in the Aosta Valley in proceeded on the Grande Traversata delle Alpi (GTA) from Pont Saint Martin to Fondo.

We continued on what is probably the most difficult European hiking route, the Grande Traversata delle Alpi from Fondo to San Lorenzo. The route from Pont Saint Martin took us 5 days to reach San Lorenzo.

I walked the entire coastline along the Gold Coast. I then travelled south along the coast and visited various places that very few people usually see.

After almost 6 months, I was travelling in Australia again. By a lucky coincidence, I ended up back in the Brisbane area of Queensland, more precisely back on the Gold Coast. My first visit was to the hinterland in Lamington National Park, which is situated at an altitude of almost 1000 metres and has the typical rainforest vegetation of the area.

Springbrook National Park is located in Queensland at the Border to New South Wales in Australia. The park is part of the so-called hinterland, i.e. the more mountainous part off the coast of the Gold Coast. The park is at a relatively high altitude, which at first glance doesn’t seem like it. Situated at an altitude of almost 1000 metres, the fauna and flora is very different from the lower areas. The park has a sub-tropical climate and a humid rainforest. There are many streams, rivers and waterfalls in the area. On this tour, I walked an approx. 14 km circular route from the plateau, down into the valley and then up again.
