Tasmania
Whether it's history, natural beauty or fabulous food and wine, Tassie is the place for you.
After soaking up history on Hobart’s riverfront cobblestone streets you could wind through the cool-climate wineries, visit beautiful Wineglass Bay or discover shipwrecks and diamonds on Flinders Island. Walk over Cataract Gorge, head to the World Heritage-listed wilderness, trek the Overland Track, wander through dark Gondwanan rainforest and watch two wild rivers tumble through valleys as one in Franklin-Gordon Wild Rivers National Park. As well as rugged and ancient natural beauty, Tasmania has a thriving creative culture, a rich history of convicts, piners, miners and whalers and great food and wine.
Accommodation can vary from camping to lodges and hotels and budget will vary accordingly.
