Overland Trail Tassie

By Andreana Ranked #2436 - Women's Footwear February 21, 2005

I've just completed the Overland Trail in Tasmania. It was 10 days of hiking along mud and rocks and scrambling up some interesting peaks like Cradle Mountain and Mount Ossa. I was going to wear an old pair of boots that I had but decided to buy a new pair (and they were on special). They were so comfortable for the entire 10 days and I felt very confident scrambling the rocks in them. I would totally recommend them to anyone. One of my friends who came along had bought a pair of more expensive boots and he was telling us how good they were...all up until the sole shredded on the 9th day. We were meant to stay for 12 days and do some more side trips but headed out in 10 due to his boot not holding up. We had to strap his boot up with strapping tape which didn't hold up then web taped it with another strap, it all came apart only a few meters from the end of the track. Thanks, I really did enjoy my trip in my Salomon's.
