About Caro▸
I grew up in Sydney, Australia in a family that never went camping or on outdoor adventures. So it came as a surprise to discover hiking and camping in my mid 20’s and it fast became somewhat of an obsession.

Since then, I’ve become a leader with the Sydney Bush Walkers Club, Search Commander with NSW SES Bush Search and Rescue (responsible for the Blue Mountains region), navigation teacher and author of 'How to Navigate - The art of traditional map and compass navigation in an Australian context.'

I'm passionate about connecting people to wild places in meaningful ways that look after both people and these precious places.

Apart from sharing tips here on my YouTube channel, my website and socials, you can find me as a regular contributor to Wild Magazine, Great Walks Magazines and other outdoors press. You might even catch me live on ABC radio Weekends with Simon Marnie and appearing as a speaker and workshop host at events such as Bushwalking Australia Conferences, ProBlogger, ORIC (Outdoor Recreation Industry) Conference, SheWentWild or the Women’s Adventure Summit. I am a member of the ASTW (Australian Society of Travel Writers) and you can also find me on TravMedia.

I am a brand ambassador for Macpac and Zoleo and some of the links within my site are affiliates. This means that I may earn a small commission from what you may purchase, whilst you pay no more. A nice win-win way of supporting my work that I really appreciate. Thanks!

Brands may buy my time, but they can't buy my opinion.

I loved this section so much. The view north up the valley from Djardji-djawara is just heart stopping and humbled the shit out of me. Stunning.

Hi Caro, I see you went in March which is when Im planning to go in 2024... looks like you had the full gamut of weather! I was a bit concerned it would be a bit too hot 'all the time' early march! Maybe not! Did you take all your food for the whole hike or resupply in HG? I'll have to go back an re-watch the other two videos (I was meant to run the 4 day stage of the GPT100 but had to withdraw 2 weeks before... so its been a while since I watched your vids!)
