Tasmania has spectacular scenery, a diverse and ancient landscape and plant life, some of the world's most appealing and unique wildlife, all moderated by a temperate maritime climate.
Our island offers walking experiences for all levels of fitness and challenge. There are more than 60 short walks that take you into dark green rainforests, along ancient sea cliffs, across open savannahs, under waterfalls, beside turquoise seas and beneath jagged mountain peaks.
There are multi-day walks for the independent walker who loves a challenge to set out self-contained and self-reliant with everything on their backs, or those who want to challenge themselves but need the comfort of a warm cabin, a shower and prepared meals at the end of each day.
For a journey of a different kind you can join the Tasmanian Trail that starts in Devonport, in the north, and crosses the island to arrive in Dover in the far south.
Tasmania has well-maintained and marked tracks, knowledgeable park rangers, top quality guides and, most important of all, no crowds.
