looking for research _ overland track users and usag

Postby Stoneycreek » Sun 22 Apr, 2012 2:40 pm

Can anyone assist please: Am looking for any research conducted on users and usage on the overland track. Would prefer something that is available online, but if not thats ok as am happy to track down a paper copy.

Would like something of a similar standard to the 2008 Department of Environment and Conservation And Bibbulmun Track Foundation, Bibbulmun Track User Research Report

thanks in advance :)

Google the State Of The Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area 2004 report then follow the references.

If you don't find what you want then you'll need to resort to FOI.

FOI can take a long time.

What do you want it for?

A comprehensive walker survey was undertaken by wildcare (on behalf of P&W) in 07, the info at the bottom of this page might be a start:
