What’s better than slinging on a backpack and hitting the trail? ‘Not much!’ reckons Osprey Australia – that’s why they’ve put their money where their mouth is and created a monumental competition.

 

This might be one of the best comps that We Are Explorers has ever promoted. The total value is huge, with up to $31,869.80 (but who’s counting?) in the prize pool.

Prizes range from daily prize packs to a next level Three Capes hiking experience in Tasmania with the Tasmanian Walking Company.

Pretty heckin’ zen if you ask me

Real Quick, who is Osprey?

Easy. Osprey’s one of the premier hiking pack brands. For over 50 years they’ve been working to make carrying your gear easier and more comfortable with light, durable, full-featured packs and bags.

In Australia, Osprey’s All Mighty Guarantee covers defects in materials and workmanship for up to 30 years, with eligible claims assessed for repair or another appropriate warranty resolution. Heaps of spare parts are also available, which helps keep packs in use.

They’re also an environmental leader, with over 97% of their pack fabrics containing 100% recycled fabric, and 92% achieving bluesign product designation.

You said there’s a $12K Major Prize?

Not yet I didn’t! But yes, the major prize is a paid trip for two to hike the Signature Three Capes Walk in Tasmania with the Tasmanian Walking Company.

You and a guest will enjoy a fully guided hut-to-hut hike on the Tasman Peninsula. Traverse the dolerite cliffs and pristine coastal heathland of Tasman National Park, then refuel each night with three course dinners made from local Tassie produce and paired with local wine*.

 

I say again, how good!

 

But it’s not just the hike, you’ll also receive:

  • Two adult return economy class air tickets from your closest capital city to Tasmania, including transfers
  • Suitable Osprey packs and bags valued at up to $1,500 RRP
  • Shared accommodation at a minimum 4-star hotel in Tasmania for the night prior to the walk, and the night after the walk 
  • A spa credit valued at $180 for use on the guided walk (yeah, there’s a spa!)
  • A prepaid card with $1,400 spending money

*Limited alcoholic beverages included.

See Terms & Conditions for full prize inclusions and limitations.
