Julia Zemiro Embarks on Ten Great Australian Walks in New SBS Documentary Series Premiering August 10

We’re now just one and a half weeks away from the premiere Great Australian Walks With Julia Zemiro, a visually stunning new documentary series from actor, presenter, and comedian Julia Zemiro (Fisk, RocKwiz) which is set to invite audiences on an intimate journey exploring ten of Australia’s most stunning and historically significant walks.

The ten-part series is set to premiere Thursday 10 August on SBS and SBS On Demand

From the sun-kissed beaches of Byron Bay, Kiama, Bondi, and Point Nepean to the dazzling views atop Tasmania’s Mount Wellington and NSW’s Blue Mountains, along Melbourne’s iconic Yarra Trail and beyond, the series traverses picturesque tracks throughout NSW, Victoria, ACT and Tasmania.

Each stunning journey features a variety of guests spanning historians, local legends, First Australians, and new Australians, who all reveal surprising and inspiring stories about Australia’s vibrant landscapes.

Using nostalgic archival footage, the series breathes life into the history behind each walk and spotlights stories that define our multicultural country: from those who have kept the fire burning at the Aboriginal Tent Embassy in Canberra to those who maintain the oldest synagogue in Australia and the World Champion female surfer whose trailblazing story was featured in AACTA nominated documentary Girls Can’t Surf.

Was wondering if you’d be interested in reviewing or covering the series? Would be happy to organise interviews with some of the incredible guests that join Julia on her Great Australian Walks.

Additionally, if a broader feature on the series is of interest – we’d be able to tee up interviews with contributors – including Producer Dan Goldberg and veteran walks expert & former SMH Travel journalist Bruce Elder who helped curate the 10 walks featured in the series.
