Walk Tasmania's Tarkine & Cradle Mountain
Walk Tasmania's Tarkine & Cradle Mountain
Discover ancient rainforests, wild rivers and rugged mountain crags that plummet into steep valleys on this six-day walking trip through Tasmania’s takayna/Tarkine and Cradle Mountain regions. Put your best foot forward as you take in incredible views, hop on a boat to cruise on the Pieman River and explore the rugged coastline where wild winds and waves meet ancient rock formations. Take a scenic walk to Montezuma Falls then explore the Cradle Mountain area’s many tracks at a pace that fits your group – surrounded by mountain peaks, lush shrubbery and still waters. End it all back in Launceston, refreshed and inspired (with a full camera roll).
