As your holiday plans take shape, choosing which part of our beautiful island state to explore can be the trickiest part.
Great Walks of Tasmania is a collective of the finest walking holidays on the island state and can be a great place to start. Each of the Great Walks has been chosen for its uniqueness, its remoteness or for its level of luxury. Knowing which experiences are in the collective takes the hard work away and lets you decide which of these top active holidays are right for you.
The walks cover less visited areas, ranging from the rainforests of the north west, to the picturesque east coast beaches and down to the more remote and wild landscapes in the state’s south. There are secluded white beaches to discover, cool climate rainforests to marvel at, challenging mountain peaks to climb, historic ruins to explore and delicious local produce to indulge in. Whether you opt to stay in a stylish eco-lodge with all convenience of hot showers and gourmet food or to camp in the wilderness, you’ll know you’ll be choosing from the very best experiences on offer.
