“How can I travel and help nature?”

Many of us have tried to figure out an ethical way to give back to nature whilst traveling.

It’s not easy.

Yes, we need a holiday, a change of scene, but this simple desire can be overshadowed by guilt. What about the CO2 emissions our travel create?

Climate change and extinction stories riddle our media, crushing us and taking away our belief both in humanity and in travel. How can one person make a difference when so many things are going wrong?

But there’s an exciting way out of this depressing cycle. By helping nature while you travel you will make a difference and enjoy yourself while you’re doing it!

We call it Conservation Travel. Echidna Walkabout is a recognised leader in mindful travel in Australia. Read how we make things right for wildlife.
