We are a team of passionate bushwalkers who want to see more people enjoying themselves outdoors.
Helen is a passionate outdoor enthusiast and has a PhD in wildlife ecology. She has extensive ecological fieldwork and bushwalking experience around Australia and the world.
Matt has more than a decade of experience working in the bushwalking community, has authored 4 bushwalking books and represented the bushwalking community in public forums and to government. He is also the owner of Wildwalks, an online resource for on-track walking in NSW.
We represent two organisations: National Parks Association of NSW – NSW’s largest bushwalking club – and Wildwalks – NSW’s most comprehensive online documentation of on-track walks.
Our Partners
National Parks Association of NSW is a non-government conservation group that seeks to protect, connect and restore the integrity and diversity of natural systems in NSW and beyond, through national parks, marine sanctuaries and other means.
Wildwalks is an online Bushwalking Guide Book that aims to help more people get out and safely enjoy the many great bushwalks and camping opportunities in NSW.
This project has only been possible thanks to the significant support from Family and Community Services (allowing us to research the concept) and from NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (to allow us to start implementing the research on real tracks for people to use).
