Getting from point A to B using just your own two feet, while carrying everything on your back is incredibly empowering.
But when you’re new to the scene, it can be a bit daunting. What should you carry? How do you pack light? Surely you don’t have to bring cans of food, right?
Leave the cans for your cute cat.
Our Women’s Six Foot Track is a overnight experience to help you build knowledge, get equipped and fall in love with spending a night under the stars.
Let this be the beginning of your “exciting hiking chapter” with countless trails to explore in epic locations.

Leave the bustle of the city behind on this two day women’s overnight hike to Cox River. You will have the chance to cross the Swing Bridge and take a dip in the river.
Meeting at Megalong Valley Tea Rooms, your guide will take you through a welcome briefing and distribute group gear/food. A chance to learn how to best prepare and arrange your pack. Ask us the hard questions, we’re here to help!
From Megalong Valley Tea Rooms, it’s a short 10 minute drive down the road to our starting point. We meet at the Tea Rooms as there is a lot of room to sort gear, a bathroom and a chance to grab a coffee.
The Six Foot Track can be broken into different sections from Katoomba all the way to Jenolan Caves. It's usually a 3 day challenge stretch, however we like pretty things, so choose the more scenic sections from Megalong Valley Road to the Cox River (Swing Bridge) and return.
Please note, the bridge does swing! If you're somone uncomfotable walking across a moving bridge, this might not be the trip for you. It is really fun!
You’ll cross farm land with cows and head into the valley towards the Cox River for a relaxing afternoon at camp.
The following awake to the smell the coffee from your tent. Wake up slow and enjoy relaxing into the morning.
After a pack up at camp, we begin the hreturn hike back to our cars at Megalong Valley Road. If you have the time, we'll stop back past the Tea Rooms for some famous scones (on us!).
Finishing between 1-1.30pm.
Though you don’t need any overnighter experience, you should be in good physical condition; good enough to hike 6.5 kilometres on each day with a pack weighing 13-15 kilograms. A moderate level of fitness is required for this hike. We take regular breaks, stop for plenty of photos and support each other. Expect to be hiking between 3.4-4 hours each day. Bring your walking poles for extra support up and down steps.
If you enjoy moving your body and getting outdoors - you’ll love this trip. There are hills and steps down toward our camp. A base level of fitness will ensure this trip is suitable for you. You will be carrying your gear on your back (roughly 12-15km). Good mobility will assist you. If you like to go for walks at home and generally keep fit, this trip will be suitable. You don’t have to have any prior overnight hiking experience.
