About the Cuvier Valley Track
Cuvier Valley Track is a hiking trail managed within Tasmania's Parks and Wildlife network, sitting in the central highlands near Lake St Clair. The track gives walkers a route into the highland landscapes that surround Australia's deepest natural freshwater lake, with the southern end of Lake St Clair around 7 kilometres away. Walls of Jerusalem National Park lies roughly 24 kilometres from the trail, providing a wider option for walkers planning a multi-day highland trip in the region. The walk is not dog friendly, not wheelchair accessible, not stroller friendly, and bikes are not permitted, in keeping with the protected status of the surrounding parks. Tasmania's central highlands carry a high alpine risk profile even in summer, with rapid weather changes, so walkers should bring waterproof and windproof layers, warm clothing, sturdy footwear, navigation tools, and sufficient food and water. Check the latest Parks and Wildlife alerts before setting out, as track conditions, river crossings, and access roads can change with weather. Tell someone your plan and expected return time before heading in, particularly if walking outside peak season.
