Cradle Mountain Walk

3 Day Travel With Kidz Exclusive!

$750 per person based on 2 adults & 2 children*

Cradle Mountain is a spectacularly beautiful area in the heart of the island which is ideal for bushwalking. Located 144 km from Launceston and 83 km from Devonport, Cradle Mountain forms the northern end of the wild Cradle Mt - Lake St Clair National Park, itself a part of the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area.

The jagged contours of Cradle Mountain epitomise the feel of a wild landscape, while ancient rainforest and alpine headlands, button grass and stands of colourful deciduous beech provide a range of environments to explore. Icy streams cascading out of rugged mountains, stands of ancient pines mirrored in the still waters of glacial lakes and a wealth of wildlife ensure there is always something to captivate you. The area is one of the most popular natural areas in Tasmania. A visit with the family will reveal why!
