Day 1 - Hobart to Strahan
First we travel to Mount Field National Park, where we stretch our legs on the Russell Falls and Tall Trees walks. We continue on to Lake St Clair for a view of Australia's deepest lake. On our way to Strahan we hike and explore the Franklin Gordon National Park. We spend tonight in our own exclusive accommodation in the historic coastal township of Strahan where your guide will fill you in on the amazing history of 'pining, mining and convicts'!.
Meals: L, D
Day 2 - Strahan to Cradle Mountain Region
This morning we enjoy the intriguing history of Strahan with options to suit everyone! Take a stroll or a bike ride (free) along the foreshore or up the Water Tower Hill for a priceless lookout over Macquarie Harbour and Ocean Beach; walk through a rainforest to Hogarth Falls (if you're quiet and lucky you may even spot a platypus); Later, we take a walk through the Henty Sand Dunes, where you can even take a quad bike tour (at own expense). In the afternoon we visit the historic 'Silver City' of Zeehan. We then continue to our overnight lodge accommodation.
Meals: B, L, D
Day 3 - Cradle Mountain to Devonport
Today we discover the World Heritage Cradle Mountain National Park. Enjoy the pure air with a guided walk around lovely Dove Lake, or challenge yourself with a more strenuous hike (unguided) to view Cradle Mountain. We spend this afternoon exploring more of the state's mid north before our arrival in Devonport, where we will farewell some of our fellow travellers.
Meals: B, L
Day 4 - Devonport to Hobart
It's only a short distance through farming country to Launceston where a transfer is required for the journey to Hobart. We travel along the historic Midland Highway, passing numerous colonial inns and quaint villages including Bagdad, Oatlands and Campbelltown. We make a stop in Ross, where you'll see Australia's oldest convict built bridge and have the opportunity to purchase lunch (at own expense). We will also see the infamous Ross Bakery, which is legendary in Japan and those in the 'know' will be in search of Kiki the witch!
Arrival into Hobart is mid-afternoon.
