Today we begin the long and scenic drive (with photo & toilet stops) to Tasmania's very first National Park. The diversity here will blow you away. We do a gentle downhill bushwalk through the Tall Trees and on to Horseshoe Falls and Russell Falls. Our next stop at Donaghy's Lookout where we enjoy a late light lunch. Here we have a short walk to the best 360 degree view of Tasmania's West and the worlds freshest air! Passing back through the wild rivers national parks we drive to Australia's deepest lake at Lake St Clair National Park. Finally, we conclude this fantastic day at Strahan - the home of the famous Gordon River and convict Macquarie Harbour.
