A walk to Mount Wellington
You can take an excellent walk on the slopes of Mt Wellington. Towering 1271 mts above from Hobart, you can enjoy spectacular views of the city. You can go gentle moor walks on the summit plateau between the period of spring to autumn but it may turn in to more tricky outings in cold windy weather. The inclines of Mt Wellington are covered by dense band of Temperate Rain forest and are stunning throughout the year, particularly in November.
Climb Cradle Mountain
Located in the Central Highlands, Cradle Mountain is the starting point of famous Overland Track - a stunning 6-day walk that will take you through some of the greatest mountain terrains. You can also discover unique flora and fauna at St Clair National park. In summer you would not like to miss fishing or canoeing at Lake St Claire, the deepest fresh-water lake in Australia.
Fishing, kayaking, Cycling
You can start cycling in the eastern coastline, in particular Maria Island and Wineglass Bay. The east coast of Tasmania adds itself as a kayaking gem, where one can take short as well as multi-day tours in spectacular Freycinet National Park or do kayaking over the crystal clear waters. Fishing here is said to be a top-class experience. Arthur and Great lakes, Western lakes, Derwent and Huon rivers are some of the most popular fisheries.
Explore the Port Arthur Sites
Rich in visual historical past, the Port Arthur Historic Site brings up a powerful sense of Australia's past convict era as well as early Australian traditions. The area covers around 100 acres and consists of significant landmarks like The Convict Church, The Penitentiary and Museum Houses.
Apart from the above, there are so many stunning places and things to do and see in Tasmanian Island. A visit to Tasmania will definitely add unique and memorable experiences to your holiday.
