Challenging hike with kids! MOUNT AMOS, Tasmania.

Join us as we tackle one of Tasmania's most challenging hikes with our 1 year old and 4 year old!

We've done this hike twice before without our kids - so we knew what to expect. We took it very slow and had a lot of stops - took us about 5.5 hours.

Our tips for hiking Mount Amos --
Embrace the adventure, but don't underestimate the challenge
Wear proper shoes that have grip
Don't go in the rain
Bring a lot of water, you'll need it
Only take your kids if you are a experienced hiker
Go early in the morning to miss the crowds and see the sunrise
