AUSTRALIA’ S NATIONAL PARKS BY PUBLIC TRANSPORT There are not many print products devoted to Australia’s 500 national parks! A new professionally printed guide offers a fresh look, from the perspective of visiting 39 Parks by public transport, and complements general print and on-line products. This first edition is a 128 page well presented guide on how to visit some of the parks in all States and Territories, using only public transport such as bus or train, . It is not a detailed or comprehensive guide to Australia’s national parks. and provides details of public transport access and points the reader to other resources for assistance when visiting Parks, such as maps, track notes, activities, and available facilities The Parks described are not necessarily the “best” but are those which are usually more accessible from major cities and towns. Authored by passionate experienced bushwalking enthusiast and writer Mick Ogrizek, of Bright, Victoria, it’s designed primarily for Park visitors without their own transport and will be of special interest to students, backpackers, tourists and travellers Content is arranged by State and Territory, and is self-published on demand.
