Multi-Active Tours in Australia
A bike tour or multi-active tour in Australia is an opportunity to experience the natural essence of this incredible country. Australia to us is a place where the best active adventures are compact, where covering less ground on tour allows us to slow down, take a closer look at an area, immerse ourselves in the natural environment and breathe fresh air away from major centers. These are places where you can find untold stories, where masters in their chosen craft are just waiting to be found and every day presents a special experience.
As we venture into Australia, with the knowledge from our Australian team and guests, we have selected two key locations to tour, Tasmania and the Noosa & Hinterland areas, these trips offer an insight into two beautiful landscapes with distinct cultures.

Bike tour traffic-free roads and rail trails through landscapes almost too beautiful to be real. Take it at your own pace with support on hand.

Kayak stunning, sheltered coastal waters in Tasmania, picturesque creeks in southeast Queensland and one of only two Everglades systems in the world near Noosa.

Hike the trails of the Tasman Peninsula and the Bunya Mountains and learn about the huge aboriginal corroborees that were held at the latter in years gone by.

Hear from experts on topics ranging from wetlands ecosystems to organic farming, to cold climate wines and understand how these people chose to master the knowledge.

The Grasshopper Adventures, Australia Collection was designed by Grasshopper Owner & Chief, Adam Platt-Hepworth. The proverb absence makes the heart grow fonder could easily be applied to Adam and his original homeland of Australia where he grew up in the Blue Mountains. Having now spent 15+ years living abroad, the opportunity to research and design a set of tours in places where Adam spent time in his youth has been a delight. He augmented his knowledge with a huge number of suggestions from our guests and has synthesized it all into an initially narrow range of highly enjoyable, active adventures. There is so much material, based on so many snippets and suggestions, that we could literally create 50 more tours, but we know from experience, that less is more when introducing a new tour range. Asked which of the tours Adam is most eager to get out on; “It has to be Tasmania! There is no other single place in the world that I so enthusiastically wish to return to when time permits. Particularly the hiking and paddling along that most dramatic of coastlines”.
Adam and the team have now spent countless hours researching the many elements of the tours and speaking with local experts. So much so, that even our colleagues who have never set foot in either Queensland or Tasmania almost feel like they have. Maybe one day they will get to!
