We took a trip to Tasmania by Cabin and Car and were blown way by Tasmania’s wilderness, wildlife and of course waterways. We had such a short time there, but planned it really well meaning we used our 12 days to the maximum. Wherever possible we were sure to check out Tasmania’s Waterfalls, Rivers and Creeks.
At the start of our journey we checked out Bull Creek at Lemonthyme Resort near Moira. From there we headed up to Cradle Mountain walking around Dove Lake. One thing to point out, Cradle Mountain National Park was by far the best thing we did on our trip. Don’t miss it!
We visited Strahan and checked out the King River Gorge on the West Coast Wilderness train out of Queenstown. Heading in land we stopped by Lake St Claire just out of Derwent Bridge, moving on to Tarraleah to see the beautiful Tarraleah Falls.
Russell Falls at the Mount Field National Park was a highlight, as was the Horseshoe Falls further up the waterfall. We finished our trip with a visit to the Cataract Gorge, taking a chairlift over the stunning South Esk River watching as the powerful water roared out of the first basin.
There was so much more to see in Tasmania. Our next trip will be with our Caravan in tow, and we plan to spend at least 6 to 8 weeks camping around what can only be described as a beautiful state. Check out the video above to see all that we saw, winding our way around Tasmania’s beautiful waterways.
