About the Australian Alps Walking Track
The Australian Alps Walking Track is a long-distance walking trail through the alpine areas of Victoria, New South Wales and the ACT. It is 655 km long, starting at Walhalla, Victoria, and running through to Tharwa, near Canberra. The track weaves mainly through Australian national parks, such as Alpine National Park and Kosciuszko National Park, although it is not exclusively restricted to national parks. The official route passes close to many peaks including Mount Kosciuszko, Mount Bogong, and Bimberi Peak, the highest points in NSW, Victoria and the ACT respectively. The AAWT crosses exposed high plains including the Victorian Bogong High Plains and the Main Range in NSW. To walk the whole trail can take between 3 and 8 weeks. Food drops or a support crew are necessary as the trail does not pass through any towns, although it passes close to the ski resorts of Mt Hotham, Falls Creek, Mt Baw Baw, Thredbo, Charlotte Pass and Perisher. There is an active group of AAWT Track Angels able to help walkers by providing transport and food drops.

About this route in 3D
Open the designer and the real Australian Alps Walking Track becomes a solid topographic model: the route rides on top of true elevation terrain, surrounding peaks and valleys included, with automatic place labels for the towns and landmarks along the way.
Everything is editable. Swap in your own dates, rename the labels, change the base shape, or replace the route entirely with the trip YOU took. The model you see is the model you get, as a watertight file ready for any 3D printer, or as a finished print made by us.
How it works
- Open the Australian Alps Walking Track in our 3D designer. Real terrain, real elevation, in your browser.
- Make it yours: use your own route, dates, labels, size and shape.
- Download the printable STL file, or order a finished 3D print. We ship to 50 countries, with optional wood frame and LED base.
Common questions
- Is this the real terrain of the Australian Alps Walking Track?
- Yes. The 3D model is built from real elevation data, so every climb, ridge and valley along the Australian Alps Walking Track appears at true relative height.
- Can I use my own route instead?
- Yes. The designer accepts your Google Timeline export, geo-tagged photos, or a route you draw by hand. The Australian Alps Walking Track is just the starting point.
- How do I get the finished model?
- Two ways: download a printable STL or GLB file for your own 3D printer, or order a finished print and we make it and ship it. We deliver to 50 countries, with optional wood frame and LED base.
- Can I download the Australian Alps Walking Track as an STL file for my own 3D printer?
- Yes. The printable STL (or GLB) file of the Australian Alps Walking Track costs $10, one token, and is watertight and ready to slice. You can also change the size, base shape and labels before you export it.
