When planning a trip to Cradle Mountain, we recommend doing season-specific research once you’ve locked your dates in. At an absolute minimum, pack sturdy hiking boots, water, snacks, a hat and warm clothing for exploring the rugged terrain. It’s not uncommon for snow to blanket the ground year-round, so keep that in mind. Throw in a sense of wild adventure and a desire to disconnect from the stresses of daily life and you’re ready for the trip of a lifetime.
