Itinerary

Mt Field, Mt Wellington and Bonorong Wildlife Park

You will be picked up in Hobart around 7,30am and taken straight into the Wilderness to Russell Falls. Russell Falls is easily Tasmania’s most recognisable waterfall with its 3 tiered drop. You will take an easy and enjoyable walk along a beautiful track that takes us to this photogenic waterfall and beyond to Horseshoe Falls. You will then walk the Tall Trees Track where high above us stand the giant Swamp Gums 80 metres tall. This is a series of short, spectacular walks amongst the cool and quiet rainforest, eucalypts, streams and local wildlife. Further up into the National Park we join the Pandani Grove Trail which takes us around the alpine Lake Dobson. Soak up the wilderness and surrounding mountain air in this lesser visited region of the park. Lake Dobson is often covered in a layer of ice and surrounded with snow in the winter months – just gorgeous! The vegetation dates back to Gondwanan days giving this area an enchanting and ancient feel. We enjoy a lunch break in one of the numerous beautiful settings at Mt. Field before continuing onwards for the day. Now for some native Australian wildlife spotting. You will enter Bonorong Wildlife Park. Bonorong is home to many of our rescued and well loved wildlife. You will have a guided tour of the park so you can get up close and personal with the native animals. Including a Tasmanian Devil Feeding and the opportunity to pat Wombats and other wildlife. To end your totally Tasmanian tour we head to the summit of Mt. Wellington (1271m) Hobart’s iconic backdrop. The views from the top are breathtaking and the vista is expansive. This is a fantastic way to wrap up a day exploring many of Tassie’s most unique experiences, rainforests, waterfalls, wildlife and fabulous scenery. We will drop you off back in Hobart around 5.30pm.

Tasmania Tours

Take a tour in Tasmania on one of our popular Tasmania tours.

Tasmania is a unique island off the coast of Australia.

A relatively isolated environment in Tasmania has enabled plants and animals to evolve undisturbed from outside influence. The cool temperate weather provides fertile conditions for the natural world to create inspiring landscapes.

Added to this, the presence of Aboriginal and European colonization has left interesting human history.

Places like the Port Arthur penal colony, Cradle Mountain, Wineglass Bay, and the natural forests are internationally recognized as being places of universal beauty and interest.

Wineglass Bay is the most famous image you will see of Tasmania worldwide.

To join one of our Tasmania tours you can easily get to Tasmania with a flight from Melbourne or Sydney. It’s the perfect holiday within a holiday for your Australia adventure. We would recommend at least 5 to 7 days to really explore what this wilderness area has to offer. However, we do have Tasmania tours for just 3 days starting in Hobart and finishing in Launceston. We also have an abundance of 1-day trips in Tasmania for shorter weekend getaways to Tassie.
