Kosciuszko National Park is all about contrasts. It is a vast area where all facets of the environment go hand-in-hand, and one cannot exist without the other. Turn these pages to explore Australia’s highest peaks and deepest gorges where warm summer days can give way to wintry storms and snow at the blink of an eye; where windswept, treeless mountains overlook dense forests of the Great Dividing Range; and icycold mountain streams tumble over escarpments to fill the dams and reservoirs of the Snowy Mountains Hydro-electric Scheme. Wildflowers are as stunning as wildlife is diverse; and stories of daring European explorers and settlers as fascinating as those of the resilient Aboriginal people who first visited this land. Enjoy short walks to historic gold mines, or to lookouts for panoramic views over the high country landscapes. Wander along marked trails to mainland Australia’s only glacial lakes, or try more challenging hikes into the wilderness zones. Australia’s toughest and most rewarding expedition walk, the Australian Alps Walking Track, will test your planning, navigation and endurance skills. Walk descriptions are complimented with sketch maps, gradient profiles, photos and detailed notes about the evolution and environment of this magic place.

This book is a guide on how to visit some of Australia's national parks using only public transport - be it by bus or train. It contains details on how to visit 39 such parks across every State and Territory. They are not necessarily the "best" national parks but those that are usually more accessible from major cities and towns. National Parks preserve the best natural parts of Australia. They showcase the best natural landscapes, including the varying flora and fauna of Australia. That's what makes national parks great and special places to visit. The book is not a detailed or comprehensive guide to Australia's national parks. It simply provides details on public transport access and points you to other resources to assist you when visiting parks, such as maps, track notes, activities, and available facilities
