Meet Our Trek leader

Joel was born and raised on the north-west Tasmanian coast and has walked these hills since he was a child. That lifelong connection to place shapes everything he does — he knows the tracks, the seasonal rhythms, and the animals that live here in a way only someone raised on the land can.

He is an experienced trek leader and outdoor practitioner, with a background that includes the 10 Peaks, the Kokoda Track and the Overland Track, plus many years guiding privately on local terrain. Joel combines navigational skill, first-aid training and wildlife knowledge to run trips that are safe, grounded and informed by real field experience.

Joel’s approach is practical and quietly respectful: attend to the details, keep people comfortable, and leave guests with clearer heads and better stories. He prefers to let the place speak for itself, guiding with care so visitors can experience the land safely and authentically.
