The Port Davey Track, officially the Old Port Davey Track, is a bushwalking track located in the south western region of Tasmania, Australia. The track traverses remote wilderness within the Southwest National Park, part of the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Site, and is managed as a wilderness walk. The Tasmanian Parks &amp; Wildlife Service recommend that experienced bushwalkers can take four-to-five days to cover the track in one direction.
The track may be combined with the South Coast Track as a long continuous trek requiring around eight to fourteen days.
The track draws its name from Port Davey, an oceanic inlet named in honour of Thomas Davey, a former Governor of Tasmania.
