3 AWE-INSPIRING TASMANIAN EXPERIENCES!

3 Awe-Inspiring Tasmanian Experiences

#1 Tahune AirWalk

Tired of city life and yearning for a day in the countryside? Then Tahune AirWalk located in the Tahune Forest Reserve, a 90-minute drive south of Hobart, is the perfect place. Feel on top of the world (literally!) as you take in mesmerising views of Tasmania’s raw beauty from the 20 to 30 metre-high steel treetop walkway. Don’t miss the chance to cross the swinging Huon and Picton footbridges for the unique feeling of being suspended above a mighty river. It might be heartstopping, but we guarantee that coupled with the spectacular forest and valley views, it is a must-try experience that you won’t regret! You’ll also have many Instagram-worthy shots to turn your friends green with envy. The AirWalk entry fee includes three forest walks as well as access to on-site barbecue and picnic facilities. Families also enjoy discounted group rates.

If you’ve always wanted to get up close to one of Tasmania’s most famous but elusive residents in its natural environment, stop by this wildlife sanctuary at Cradle Mountain. An added bonus is that you’ll also meet two other rare native marsupials, the Eastern and spotted-tail quolls. The after-dark feeding tours offer the best chance to see the nocturnal marsupials at their most playful. There are also daytime tours where you’ll learn about these endangered animals and the ongoing efforts to safeguard them. Both tours offer discounted rates for families, while children below six years of age can enter for free. Devils@Cradle is located just 500 metres before the Cradle Mountain Lodge or National Park, about a four-and-a-half hour drive from Hobart and a 2-hour drive from Launceston.

How’s holding a seahorse in the palm of your hand for the ultimate animal encounter and an experience your kids will never forget? Spend time discovering and unravelling the life of this intriguing marine dweller, where you will learn fun facts such as why these fish must eat constantly to stay alive, how the males bear the unborn young and why humans are threatening their survival. For a behind-the-scenes look into the world’s first working seahorse farm, join the park’s 45-minute guided tour. Dedicated to breeding and conserving seahorses, the Centre is located in Tamar Valley, less than an hour's drive from Launceston or Devonport. Family packages include admission for two adults and six kids, and entry for children under three years old is free.
