Tasmania National Park Highlights

Easy-going road trip from the east coast into Tassie’s mountainous interior. The essence of this self-drive tour is getting away from it all. You’ll find yourself heading out of Hobart and slowly working your way up the coast to the sand dusted foothills of Freycinet National Park. It’s a lovely lazy drive with ample opportunities to feel the soft squidge of white sand between your toes and fresh seafood and fine wine on your palette. From here you’ll head inland and into the mountainous wilderness of central Tasmania. After an overnight stopover in Launceston, it will be Cradle Mountain National Park that occupies your senses. Where better to don your hiking boots and take to the trail or simply sit beside a lake and soak up that alpine air and amazing verdant valley views. If you’re looking for a wild self-drive trip in Tasmania, this one’s for you. With sensible distances, local recommendation and tried and tested accommodation, there’s no better feeling than comes from freedom, flexibility and peace of mind on the open road.
