Jutting out to the sea on Tasmania’s mild east coast is the rugged and beautiful Freycinet Peninsula; azure bays and white sandy beaches surround granite knuckles. Guided walking provides the total immersion into Tasmania’s coastal environment where wildflowers, birds, native animals and marine creatures are often seen. In the northeast diving is also popular, with excellent visibility, varied marine habitats and fish and plant diversity.

The North East is mountainous and forested, and in summer fields of lavender and poppies cover its hills. The inland portion of this region is rich agricultural land and the wineries, orchards and farms that produce the acclaimed fine Tasmanian wines and foods ensure your self-drive touring is full of yummy treats.

Tasmania has 18 National Parks and two World Heritage areas – MacQuarie Island and the South West Wilderness, this later incorporates almost 20% of the island. At least half of Tasmania, including the Central Highlands and the remote southwest, is dominated by wet heath-covered high mountains and dramatic peaks, many rising above shallow tarns and picturesque lakes. The area is one of the most glaciated in Australia and includes Tasmania's highest mountain, Mt Ossa (1617 metres) and Lake St Clair, Australia's deepest natural freshwater lake, the source of the River Derwent.

The West Coast area of Tasmania is made up of rugged coast, mountain ranges, flowing rivers, steep gorges, rainforest wilderness and ghost towns. Strahan is situated on Macquarie Harbour and is the only town on this dangerous coast. Aboriginals, convicts, loggers and miners have all left their mark on Tasmania's West Coast, where stories of early struggles unfold within a unique natural heritage. Resting easily between the extremes of hardship and magnificent beauty the area boasts good old-fashioned hospitality; from the tiny historic village of Strahan, where fishing boats and cruisers moor, to the mining towns of Tullah, Rosebery, Zeehan and Queenstown, the character of the West lives on through local people.

Cradle Mountain and Lake St. Clair make up part of the Western Tasmania World Heritage site. The mountain, the most recognised feature in the park, is surrounded by stands of native deciduous beech (wonderfully colourful in autumn), rainforest, alpine heathlands and buttongrass. The park covers an area of 125,000 ha which is characterised by a rugged, glaciated landscape with over 25 major peaks and a wide range of glacial formations - tarns, glacial lakes, moraine deposits, U-shaped valleys and waterfalls. Icy streams cascade down the mountainsides, and ancient pines are reflected in the still glacial lakes.

Tasmania’s capital is Hobart a collection of Georgian and Victorian buildings against a backdrop of mountain and sea. The city is steeped in history, and is Australia's second oldest settlement. Hobart's historical centre is Salamanca Place, complete with cobble stone lanes, sandstone warehouses, arts and crafts shops, cafes and restaurants.

Just 90 minutes from Hobart is the Tasman Peninsula where you can explore historic Sorell, pick fresh berries in season, lookout over Pirates’ Bay, walk the dog line, meet a Tasmanian Devil and visit Port Arthur’s notorious prison where between 1837 and 1877 an estimated 12,500 convicts were accommodated.

Bruny Island tempts the visitor with remote beaches, rainforest, wetlands and rocky coasts. The island is home to thousands of fairy penguins.

The Huon region borders the Southwest Wilderness and continues the natural theme with forests, national parks and waterways. The Huon Valley and Cygent, across the other side of the Huon River, host historic towns and a wealth of art and craft.
