— What You Can Expect —

Join the Cradle Mountain National Park tour with a 5 hour adventure to spend walking a variety of trails in the stunning World Heritage listed area. We will depart from Launceston and make a short stop in Sheffield – The Town of Murals. Enjoy the cultural aura of the village with over 100 paintings on the walls of buildings across the town. Then we will arrive at Cradle Mountain National Park, where we begin with a series of short walks to Rainforest City and Pencil Pine Falls. 

Walking from Dove Walk, you can choose your preferred main walk. There is the iconic Dove Lake Circuit which is 6 kilometres, classified as easy and usually takes 2-3 hours. For the more active and avid hiker, we offer the chance to climb to the loftier heights of Marion’s Lookout. This is around 4 kilometres but is classified as medium, with some steep sections. This walk is well rewarded with amazing 360-degree views of the surrounding World Heritage wilderness area from the top. 

We stop along the way for a lunch break, enjoy a rest by a quiet stream, watch the famous and friendly Cradle wombats in their natural habitat, or take the time to photograph the landscapes. Learn some of the local histories as we visit Weindorfer’s Chalet and see the ancient King Billy Pines on Weindorfer’s Forest Walk. 

On our return to Launceston, we stop to refuel and refresh at the delicious Van Diemans Land Ice Creamery and Christmas Hills Raspberry Farm, before arriving back at around 6:00 pm. 

Cradle Mountain is the backdrop for a truly memorable and not to be missed Tasmanian experience.
