SMASH-HIT survival series Alone Australia is back with its most daring season yet.
Premiering with a double episode on Wednesday, March 26 at 7.30pm on SBS and SBS On Demand, Alone Australia Season 3 returns to home soil across 12 gripping episodes.
Dropped into the unpredictable and unforgiving wilds of the West Coast Ranges of Tasmania (Lutruwita), 10 new trailblazing survivalists will push themselves to the limit, alone, totally isolated and with zero contact from the outside world.
Battling the elements, they are forced to adapt to the wild will of nature, all in the hopes of being the last one standing and winning a life-changing prize of $250,000.
Alone Australia Season 3 is supersized in every way; the characters are bold, the competition fierce, the bushcraft masterful and the kill counts extraordinary. Prepare for surprises at every turn as the participants face each challenge with unparalleled grit and remarkable ingenuity.
Alone Australia is the ultimate test of endurance, with only three ways to exit: voluntary tap out, medical extraction or as the winner. With no camera crew, each participant must document their own survival through a brutal winter as they fight to stay warm, dry, fed and alive for as long as they can.
Bringing to the wild 10 individually selected items, it is up to each participant to navigate the unrelenting cold and wet of Tasmania’s West Coast Ranges. But the true challenge of Alone isn’t just physical – it’s mental. With only their thoughts for company, the participants’ emotional resilience will be tested like never before.
No shelter, fishing catch or successful trap can eclipse the loneliness and isolation; participants aren’t just competing against each other – but themselves.
This is a season of firsts. Five women set a milestone as the first to bring equal gender representation to the cast.
One participant becomes the first to grab the title of the oldest player in the series’ history.
Expect first-of-a kind hunting, fishing and trapping skills, and watch shelter builds and bushcraft be redefined to remarkable new extremes. Witness dramatic wildlife encounters and brace for completely unchartered, perilous hazards.
You’ve never seen Alone Australia like this. Records will be broken. Limits will be shattered. And the full force of nature unleashes its power.
More than a survival experiment, Alone Australia is about self-reliance, courage, and adaptation.
It challenges the “norms” of society, reminding us of the primal connection between humanity and the natural world.
SBS Head Of Unscripted Joseph Maxwell said: “The resilience of the 10 participants is extraordinary.
“Their unfiltered, raw stories are filled with surprise, insight and drama. Alone Australia Series 3 is gripping TV.”
