Hiking & Walking Holidays - Tasmanian Wilderness
Australia
Tasmania … the name conjures images of exotic, untouched wilderness and equally exotic wildlife. Eleven national parks offer spectacular landscapes to explore. A journey through the western side of the island leads through beautiful alpine wilderness. Cradle Mountain towers over Dove Lake; grand panoramas await at Hanson’s Peak. At Marion’s Lookout, stunning views of Crater Lake. The impressive Walls of Jerusalem – a dolerite formation 165 million years old. Catch a glimpse of a wombat, an echidna … or the legendary Tasmanian Devil. Stand in the Valley of the Giants, surrounded by the tallest old-growth hardwood trees on the planet. On the island’s eastern side, a different world; the Hartz Mountains bear witness to several ice ages, offering expansive views of an ancient landscape … atop a high cliff, view the astonishing artistry of salt and sea: arches, gorges, caves, monumental sea stacks. At Wineglass Bay, pristine white sand encircles an azure sea. The Tasmanian wilderness -- an extraordinary journey.
