24.01.2022 Be fearless in the pursuit of what sets your soul on fire. ~ Jennifer Lee Travelling through Tasmania awakes your emotions and inspires your spirit. Waterhouse Point is a spectacular hidden treasure on Tasmania's northern coastline with many free campsites spotted along the waterfront, Remarkable Cave on the Tasman Peninsula is a truly unforgettable experience, Crescent Bay is one of the most spectacular beaches in Tasmania - if not Australia, the Lady Aurora and Biolu...minescence make a picture perfect double on the South Arm Peninsula and a 'Blue Hour' sunrise over Tessellated Pavement will leave you speechless. The Dove Lake boatshed and Cradle Mountain lightly dusted in snow during sunrise is a sight to see, you just can’t beat wandering along Boat Harbour beach at first light, there is plenty of cuteness overload amongst the local wildlife at Cradle Mountain, a leisurely 15 minute walk from the picnic area of Myrtle Forest will have you standing in awe under the ferns surrounding a magical waterfall and you have to see the sunsets from the Bay of Fires to believe them. Oh and did we mention we have very friendly local guides at Cradle Mountain and our little piece of paradise named Wineglass Bay is not only renowned for its crystal blue waters and fine quartz sand but will live in your memories forever.

24.01.2022 What we see depends mainly on what we look for. ~ John Lubbock If it is nature, wildlife and unforgettable memories you seek than the following awaits you in your travels throughout the wild lands of Tasmania Pristine views of the Queen River and surrounding wilderness on our West Coast, little joeys popping their heads out of mumma’s pouch to say hello at Fortescue Bay on the Tasman Peninsula, long walks through giant trees which surround the gravel road to Darlington ...on Maria Island, the iconic ‘Candlestick’ dolerite sea cliff on the Tasman Peninsula, you can stand in awe looking through the trees at the turquoise waters of Coles Bay and what says romance more than ‘Romeo’ the albino wallaby standing on a blanket of Pink Camelia petals waiting for his ‘Juliet’ on Bruny Island. The stunning Southport Lagoon Conservation Area on Tassie’s south-east coast, Junee Cave State Reserve with her beautiful lush green forests just south of Mt Field, an extraordinary sunrise over ‘The Hazards’ Mountain Range in the Freycinet National Park, the most scenic and wild coastline of the Arthur-Pieman Conversation Area and sometimes, the most unbelievable views impose themselves to your eyes the moment you expect the least especially when you arrive at Wineglass Bay. Oh and did we mention we share a dolphin calf breaching the water right next to mum in the D’Entrecasteaux Channel just off Bruny Island and you really have to see Picnic Rocks Beach in the Mount William National Park on Tassie’s northern coastline to realise how beautiful it is.

23.01.2022 Special Video Feature: Jumping for Joy at Parsons Falls In the alpine region of the Central Plateau, behind the Great Western Tiers, is Parsons Falls. At 1030 metres above sea level, Parsons Falls is subject to SNOW and ice any time of the year. In warmer weather, it makes for a decent small walk that can be accomplished in a few hours (if you're fit and agile). From Lake Mackenzie Road, just 150 metres from Lake Mackenzie itself, is a vehicle track on the right. A short d...rive up this track is a gated area, where the walk begins. On this walk there are various other tracks that can be taken by hikers wishing to explore more of the Central Plateau. To reach Parsons Falls, follow the walk along the vehicle track for approximately 2kms. You will reach an intersection with some 'channels' of flowing water beside you. You must turn right, and head northwards towards Fisher River. Your walk will take you along large pipelines, down a steep staircase before reaching Fisher River. Once you reach the river, you need to walk downstream a short distance to reach the very top of Parsons Falls. Access to the bottom of the waterfalls is tricky and hazardous, due to the steepness of the terrain, and the lack of formal tracks. To your left looking downstream from near the top of the falls, some pink ribbons mark the start of the route to the base of the falls, which descends steeply before coming out at the large rocks slabs and impressive pool of Parsons Falls. This walk is not recommended for unfit people, or people who lack confidence with their abilities to negotiate steep terrain. For more information on nearly 200 waterfalls throughout Tasmania click on the link below https://waterfallsoftasmania.com.au/waterfalls Thanks to Brandon Shearer for sharing his adventures. Brandon says: By far the coldest water I’ve ever swam in and worth every bit.

19.01.2022 Check out mum and bub wombat having a play at Cradle Mountain what a rare moment to capture Cradle Mountain and wombats are synonymous with each other... you are pretty sure to come across them They are common around the accommodation places like Highlanders, Discovery Holiday Park, the Lodge, the Hotel and Cradle Wilderness Village There are also plenty of tracks where they are regularly seen including the Enchanted Forest Walk, Ronny Creek, Crater Lake, Dove Lake and... of course Wombat Pool. The wombat is the largest burrowing mammal in the world. Wombats often dig their burrows in the areas above creeks and gullies. Burrows can be up to 20 metres long and more than 2 metres below the ground. Wombats can quickly dig complicated burrows due to their strong legs and sharp claws... then they can push loosened soil away with their hind feet. Some wombats even have their burrows interconnecting! Did you also know that the entrance to the female wombat's pouch actually faces backwards. This is to prevent dirt from entering when they are burrowing. The Tasmanian Wombat averages 85 cm in length and 20 kg in weight. Although you are likely to come across wombats at all times of the day the best times are during dusk and dawn. Did you also know that wombats are the only animal in the world that produce cubed-shaped poo!!! They can actually pass up to 100 deposits of poop a night but why. For some time scientists have believed that they stack their cube-shaped poo to stop it rolling around and therefore mark their territory. Whilst this is true it has recently been found that the cube shape is more related to the dry environments most wombats live in. Therefore they have to really squeeze every drop of moisture out of their food. This coupled with the fact that wombat intestines have a shape unlike any other animal. This includes two distinct ravine-like grooves, where the intestine is stretchier, which helps shape wombat poo into a cube. Thanks to Carrie Zeng for sharing her amazing video.

18.01.2022 I took a walk in the woods and came out taller than the trees. ~ Henry David Thoreau All your adventures throughout the wild lands of Tasmania will have you feeling on top of the world. There are crystal clear waterholes in the Douglas Apsley National Park, a little piece of paradise from Binalong Bay at the Bay of Fires, serene looking Adventure Bay on Bruny Island, the blossoms of spring have sprung again in our beautiful Huon Valley and the first rays of light over Win...eglass Bay will leave you speechless. There are pretty special star trails from over Dove Lake and Cradle Mountain, a winter wonderland awaiting you at Lake Dobson in the Mt Field National Park, it’s the best feeling in the world when admiring the landscape from the summit of Cradle Mountain and you have to experience the absolutely incredible views from the top of Mt Strzelecki on Flinders Island to believe them! Oh and did we mention when you drive into the Southwest National Park you realise it is one of the most insane locations in the world and there is plenty of cuteness overload looking straight at you in the Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park which leads you to ask yourself are our wombats Tassie’s fluffy balls or walking pillows We love to share your Tassie videos, photos and stories with the world You can inbox us or post to our wall.

16.01.2022 Check out this gorgeous wombat at Friendly Beaches on the Freycinet Peninsula thanks to Jordan Connor-Gray This spectacular white sandy beach with turquoise waters offers you so much to explore. With this walk you could amble just 10 metres from the car and say you’d done it. But how likely is that when those 10 metres take you to one of the most beautiful, long, white sand beaches you’ll likely come across? All up you can actually walk 5 km's return and fully explore this ...little piece of paradise The Friendly Beaches beg for long, slow exploration. Get some sand between your toes, stare out to sea, or watch the shorebirds. If the surf’s up, you could try out the breaks. Or if surf fishing appeals, there’s enough beach for everyone. Oh and did we mention the friendly local wombats, wallabies and echidnas who often frequent this little gem of a beach Happy exploring We love to share your Tassie videos, photos and stories with the world You can inbox us or post to our wall.

16.01.2022 Beautiful footage of Waratah Falls thanks to Ness from madNESS Photography Located in the town of the same name, Waratah Falls is adjacent to the Savage River National Park in north-west Tasmania. Waratah sits near the edge of a plateau about 600 metres above sea level. This may not be obvious when driving across the tableland into Waratah, but parts of the town have views down valleys which give a sense of this elevation. Other parts of the town, and the surrounding farm l...and, border onto rainforest belonging to the takayna/Tarkine wilderness The Waratah River forms a lake in the middle of town, before plunging over the top edge of the plateau as a substantial waterfall right next to the main road. What other town can claim a waterfall in the town centre? if you like visiting small towns which feel remote and relatively unaffected by tourism, then Waratah is one of the easiest to get to. Tourists on the well travelled route between the west coast and the north coast, or Cradle Mountain, tend not to make the detour to Waratah, even though it’s only a short detour from the main highway. Waratah Falls provides a very picturesque view for picnickers and photographers from Kings Bridge or the grand old Bischoff Hotel. There is also a short walking track (20 to 30 minutes return) that takes you right to the base of this magnificent waterfall. Happy exploring You can also follow Ness via instagram and her website www.instagram.com/madnessphotos http://www.madnessphotography.com.au/ We love to share your Tassie videos, photos and stories with the world You can inbox us or post to our wall.

Our little friends cannot wait to welcome you to our untouched piece of Tasmanian coastline.... Get away from it all, at Kittawa Lodge, King Island. King Island is anchored in the middle of the Bass Strait between Victoria and Tasmania’s North West coast. Surrounded by some of Australia’s most beautiful beaches, King Island has two new golf courses in Ocean Dunes and Cape Wickham which are ranked among the best in the world. King Island is also famous for food exports with a range of produce being sought by the world’s top chefs. Succulent beef, rich gourmet cheese and crayfish plucked from the Island’s crystal clear waters are but three of the delicacies you can enjoy on your visit.

16.01.2022 Check out this gorgeous wombat, zigzagging along a snow-covered track at Cradle Mountain, then stops for a little yawn half way along, before finding his warm burrow and popping in for a little nap Thanks to Piotr Babis for sharing his very cute video. Piotr says: "Winter wonderland in a wombat country." ... The wombat is the largest burrowing mammal in the world. Wombats often dig their burrows in the areas above creeks and gullies.

16.01.2022 Live in the sunshine, swim the sea, drink the wild air. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson During sunset from The Neck on Bruny Island you can’t help but lose yourself in the sheer beauty of the moment, Jeanneret Beach is a little piece of east coast Tasmanian paradise, it’s hard not to believe in magic when places like Cradle Mountain exist, the sight of soft tree ferns through the ancient Trowutta Arch is irresistible, the Narawntapu National Park coastline in northern Tasmania has... a view to dazzle and a walk along the Organ Pipe Track on kunanyi/Mt Wellington offers a stunning spot to capture the endemic Tasmanian Waratah in full flower with the Organ Pipes as a background. Federation Peak in our Southwest National Park is a truly remarkable landscape that marks the end of the Eastern Arthur Range, the striking and glorious Cape Hauy on the Tasman Peninsula is part of the tallest sea cliffs in the Southern Hemisphere, at Mt Field you get to come face to face with ‘Butterball’ the young echidna, Hobart’s Cascade Brewery offers a classical foreground as the sun sets over the backdrop of kunanyi/Mt Wellington, it’s an intriguing sight to see what comes ashore down at Burnie’s beach during sunrise and the warm glow of the ‘Flinders Wharf’ beach at sunset with Mount Strezlecki in the background will stay with you forever. Oh and did we mention that one of the most enjoyable past times is simply the pleasure of witnessing the local fur seals at Binalong Bay who are just soaking up the afternoon sun in the shallows and Flinders Island has it all the white sandy beaches of the Tasman Peninsula, the pink granite mountains of Freycinet, and the rich orange lichen boulders of Bay of Fires.

'Golden Hour' over the Southwest National Park is to put it simply perfection, watching pademelons kiss is cuteness level 1000, a 'Golden Hour' sunset from Binalong Bay at the Bay of Fires is something to remember for ever, Cradle Mountain is mesmerising in any weather but nothing compar...es to hiking around this landmark surrounded by snow and you have to see this magical view on the trek to the summit of Frenchmans Cap in the Franklin-Gordon Wild Rivers National Park to experience its beauty.

09.01.2022 "Catch me if you can!" Check out this gorgeous platypus at Deloraine, in north-west Tassie, thanks to local Anne Gilles who says: "Last light, about to turn for home and this little chap pops up in front of me... as speedy on land as in the water! Such marvellous creatures" ... Platypus are common in Tasmania’s creeks and rivers and are relatively easy to find if you are patient. They prefer the protection of wider creeks, with a good flow of water and need vegetation and earth banks to enable them to dig their camping and nesting burrows. The best time to look for them is early morning or late afternoon. Stand or sit quietly among the trees and bushes on the creek bank and watch the surface of the water, especially up close to the banks, for their tell-tale ripples. Patience will be rewarded Latrobe calls itself the Platypus Capital of the World because they’re so common there. Just head down Hamilton Street off the main street (Jojo's on the corner) to Warrawee Reserve. The reserve is only a kilometre or so from the centre of town. The road follows the river. There’s no need to go all the way to the reserve; just stop near the big rocks beside the road just past the intersection with the old Deloraine road. Look for tell-tale ripples near the bank and watch patiently Other great spots to seek out this beautiful and rare creature are: Beauty Point in the Tamar Valley north of Launceston The creeks and rivers around Stanley Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park A short drive from Burnie to the Fernglade Reserve (the reserve at the end of the road is the best location, but platypus can be found right along the creekline) At Westerway beside the Tyenna River on the way to Mount Field National Park, platypus are common in the river, and in the creeks of the park itself At Loongana south of Ulverstone, if you stay at Mountain Valley Wilderness cabins you're certain to be shown platypus in the Leven River that flows through the property. (As well as having Tassie devils feed outside your door) At Waratah in the north-west, the old quarry in the centre of town has been landscaped into a scenic lake and is a reliable place to see platypus in the morning and evening. Go to the southern side of the lake away from the main street and. if nothing else, you'll be able to take a photo of the "Platypus Crossing" road sign You can also follow Anne via instagram www.instagram.com/agillies62 We love to share your Tassie videos, photos and stories with the world You can inbox us or post to our wall.

08.01.2022 When you leave a beautiful place, you carry it with you wherever you go... today we share 20 of your very special captures from unforgettable places all across our island paradise The crystal clear waters of Binalong Bay at the Bay of Fires are pretty much perfect, there are incredible reflections on Lake Elysia as the sun sets over The Acropolis in Tassie’s Central Highlands, magnificent views of Mt Geryon from the aptly named Pool of Memories, it’s a pretty special hike ...when you come across a snow-capped Mt Solitary rising from Lake Pedder in Tasmania’s south-west and if you’re a wombat then Maria Island is heaven and there is always time for an afternoon snooze in the sun. Cosy Corner North at the Bay of Fires is just one of our little pieces of paradise, Cockle Creek in Tassie’s far south is a must visit destination and home to some of the cutest echidnas around, the trek into Snug Falls through sclerophyll forest and a fern lined-gully is one of our hidden treasures, we share a never before captured view of the Tasman Bridge and Hobart’s eastern shore taken from high above the city side of the Derwent River, Musselroe Bay on our far north-east coast is a beach washed clean of human footprints and once your eyes catch a glimpse of the tallest sea cliffs in the world the only option is to stand in awe and admire the view.

05.01.2022 Special Video Feature: Cape Hauy on the Tasman Peninsula... at 900 feet the highest sea cliffs in the Southern Hemisphere Cape Hauy is the most well-known and accessible walk from Fortescue Bay located within the Tasman National Park and rightly so, it is a well-constructed trail with fantastic views on offer throughout its duration. The 8km return walk from the cape can be completed in 4 hours though additional time is recommended to take in the extensive views of the coas...t and astonishing cliff faces. Starting from the boat ramp end of Fortescue Bay, the Cape Hauy trail heads east following the rocky coastline via a wide and well-constructed track. After 15 minutes of skirting the coast the trail then climbs inland. The track continues to climb for the next kilometre, leaving the She Oaks and Banksia’s of the lower coastline, entering dry sclerophyll forest. Two flat scrublands are then passed before the track climbs again, reaching a trail sign pointing south to Cape Pillar. Continuing past on the left-hand side of the sign the track begins to descend to the cape. Quickly, the forest opens up presenting you with the undulating slopes of Cape Hauy, with the walking track-etched deeply into it. The first scramble down onto the cape is the steepest of the days hiking but is easily managed. Once at the top of the first saddle extensive panoramic views stretch far north past the Forester coast to Maria Island and south, detailing the ridges of Cape Pillar. For the next 1km, the trail rises and falls over the remaining two saddles, passing a large sinkhole on the left. Towards the end, the track borders close to the cliff’s edge, providing thrilling views down at multiple points. The final segment of the trail, before reaching a large plateau, is quite steep and narrow care. Once at the end you are able to clearly view the exceptional rock formations of the Candlestick and Totem Pole, large columns of dolerite rocking out of the ocean. The Hippolytes, a large section of rock also sits severed from the mainland just east of you. When returning to the trail head via the same route, a short and worthwhile detour can be made to Monument Lookout via the Cape Pillar trail, 20 minutes return from the sign. The 200m high sheer cliff of Monument Lookout can easily be found, though it is not clearly sign posted. From here exceptional views of Cape Hauy and the Hippolytes can be seen, along with Cape Pillar and Tasman Island. Thanks to Ash Baldwin for sharing his adventures.

04.01.2022 Liffey Falls - breathtaking footage from one of Tasmania's prettiest waterfalls Regarded as one of the most picturesque waterfalls in Tasmania, Liffey Falls is a prized attraction that should definitely be on everyones list of places to visit. Located south-east of Deloraine this stunning sandstone tiered waterfalls finds its home nestled within a cool temperate rainforest featuring beautiful myrtle, sassafrass, leatherwood and eucalypt forests. Skirting the Liffey River ...in its entirety, the 8km return walking track to the falls is well constructed and suitable for most walkers. For those limited by time, a much shorter 45 minute return trail from the top car park (accessed via Riversdale Road) provides easier access but neglects the lower sections of Liffey River. The walk described here is from the lower car park. Beginning from the southern end of the Gulf Road Picnic Area, the trail follows the eastern bank of the Liffey River through ancient myrtle forests. After 1km the river is crossed via a bridge and the trail continues on the western bank. For the next 1.5km the trail darts between lush tree ferns and the river before crossing another bridge. From here the trail begins to gently ascends through rainforest littered with ferns. Note that sections of the track may be muddy during wetter months. After about 1km, the Liffey Falls are reached via a short side track. Broken into two main tiers, the Falls are a magnificent sight with water sourced from the Great Western Tiers surging over the sandstone edge. Continuing further on the main track, the Spout cascade is seen next from a well-constructed viewing platform. For those wishing to continue further, the top picnic area can be reached via a winding 1km track and makes a suitable break spot. Toilet and barbecue facilities can be found here. Return to the trailhead via the same route.

02.01.2022 Beautiful footage of Waratah Falls thanks to Ness from madNESS Photography Located in the town of the same name, Waratah Falls is adjacent to the Savage River National Park in north-west Tasmania. Waratah sits near the edge of a plateau about 600 metres above sea level. This may not be obvious when driving across the tableland into Waratah, but parts of the town have views down valleys which give a sense of this elevation. Other parts of the town, and the surrounding farm l...and, border onto rainforest belonging to the takayna/Tarkine wilderness The Waratah River forms a lake in the middle of town, before plunging over the top edge of the plateau as a substantial waterfall right next to the main road. What other town can claim a waterfall in the town centre? if you like visiting small towns which feel remote and relatively unaffected by tourism, then Waratah is one of the easiest to get to. Tourists on the well travelled route between the west coast and the north coast, or Cradle Mountain, tend not to make the detour to Waratah, even though it’s only a short detour from the main highway. Waratah Falls provides a very picturesque view for picnickers and photographers from Kings Bridge or the grand old Bischoff Hotel. There is also a short walking track (20 to 30 minutes return) that takes you right to the base of this magnificent waterfall. Happy exploring You can also follow Ness via instagram and her website www.instagram.com/madnessphotos http://www.madnessphotography.com.au/ We love to share your Tassie videos, photos and stories with the world You can inbox us or post to our wall.

02.01.2022 "I took a walk in the woods and came out taller than the trees." ~ Henry David Thoreau When you explore the wild lands of Tasmania it's impossible not to fall in love with her many secrets.
