Meet Tim Savage – The Voice Behind Australian Hiker

If there’s one thing Tim Savage knows, it’s how to put one foot in front of the other—and talk about it along the way! As the founder of Australian Hiker, Tim has hiked everything from bushland to coastlines and even urban trails, sharing his insights with fellow adventurers. His love for the outdoors started young, as a true “latchkey kid,” exploring the bush with a friend after school. These early adventures sparked a lifelong passion for hiking, and today, you’ll usually find him on the trail with his wife, Gill—or solo, with a Buff or two in his pack.

One of Tim’s most unforgettable hiking moments? Tackling the Bibbulmun Track in 2018, when a stormy first day gave way to a spectacular double rainbow—right in his path. And when it comes to sunrises, few places top the view from above the tree line in Kosciuszko National Park.

Tim is a minimalist hiker, preferring trail runners over boots and freeze-dried meals over cooking on the trail. His top picks? Campers Pantry Indian Pilaf of course and he’s tweaking his rankings, so stay tuned!. And while he doesn’t drink alcohol on the trail, a well-earned glass of wine is a favorite post-adventure treat.

If he could hike anywhere in the world, the John Muir Trail—with its towering conifer forests—would be his dream destination. And his ideal hiking partner? That’s an easy one—his wife, Gill, who shares his love for the outdoors.

When he’s not hiking, Tim is deep into podcasts (about 11 hours a week, to be exact!) and running Australian Hiker, where he shares expert gear reviews, trail guides, and hiking tips with fellow adventurers.
