Rejseplan
Vi forlader Launceston og tager mod Sheffield, vægmaleriernes by, og nyder et kort stop her.
Byen med vægmalerier. Sheffield er en lille og finurlig landsby ved foden af bjergene. Sheffield er Tasmaniens eget udendørs kunstgalleri, der byder på over 100 malerier på væggene i bygninger over hele byen. Kunstværket skildrer Cradle Mountain-regionens historie og er en god smagsprøve på, hvad der kommer, inden vi fortsætter videre ind i bjergene.
Vi ankommer til Cradle Mountain National Park, et område med ikonisk natur med en bred vifte af vandrestier at vælge imellem. Cradle Mountain er et fantastisk område på verdensarvslisten. Vi lader vores vandreplan være fleksibel, så den passer til vores gæster og vejrforholdene på dagen. Når vi ankommer til Cradle Mountain National Park, forbereder vi os på vandremulighederne foran os. Vi sigter efter omkring 4 – 5 timer i Nationalparken, for virkelig at få mest muligt ud af stierne. Vi begynder med en række korte gåture til Rainforest City og Pencil Pine Falls, 2 korte og nemme gåture, der introducerer os til området.
Vores vigtigste vandretur for dagens tur begynder fra Dove Lake med 2 tilgængelige gåmuligheder. Her kan du vælge din foretrukne hovedvandring. Der er det ikoniske Dove Lake Circuit, som er en 6 kilometer lang bane, klassificeret som let og normalt tager 2-3 timer. Dette er en af de førende vandreture i Tasmanien, sporet bølger rundt om Dove Lake og krydser under Cradle Mountain. Hele den storslåede flora kan ses på denne tur, med knapgræs, myrte, sassafras, fagus og King Billy Pine langs vejen, sammen med episke udsigter over Cradle Mountain.
For den mere aktive og ivrige vandrer tilbyder vi chancen for at klatre til de højere højder af Marion's Lookout. Dette er omkring 4 kilometer, men er klassificeret som en vandretur i mellemklasse, med nogle stejle sektioner. Marions Lookout ligger på 1200 m og giver en betagende 360 graders udsigt over det omkringliggende verdensarvs vildmarksområde.
Vi stopper undervejs for en frokostpause, nyder et hvil ved et stille vandløb, ser de berømte og venlige Cradle-wombats i deres naturlige habitat, eller tager os tid til at fotografere landskaberne. Lær noget af den lokale historie, når vi besøger Weindorfer's Chalet og se den gamle King Billy Pines på Weindorfers Forest Walk.
Da vi vender tilbage til Launceston, stopper vi for at genopfriske og tanke op på den lækre Van Dieman's Land Ice Creamery og Christmas Hills Raspberry Farm. Vi vender tilbage til Launceston omkring kl. 18.00 – 18.30 efter en kæmpe, men uforglemmelig Cradle Mountain-dag.

Jess is a great guide and made a fantastic trip even better. I would highly recommend this day trip to anyone.
Jess is a great tour guide, with lots of passion and knowledge about Cradle Mountain and the animals in there. She is very helpful and funny. The weather was not good, it was raining and cold, but Jess still managed to offer us with hiking options and bought us to places to see wombats and other animals. She also gave us thick raincoat to keep us warm and dry. I wish to come back again to see the sunny side of Cradle Mountain!
Thanks so much for the lovely review! Thanks for joining Tours Tasmania for our Cradle Mountain tour. The wombats at Cradle Mountain are a great distraction when the rain rolls in. Hope to have you back for a sunny day soon!
Very intuitive and lots to see on the way. It was raining while we were there but still a great experience. We were lucky to have seen a wombat and wallaby and bird life when rain stopped.
Tour guide was fantastic, plenty of knowledge and expertise made it an unforgettable experience. Great amount of choice and difficulty with what hikes to go for, couldn’t recommend it enough.
Thank you so much! Cradle Mountain really does deliver on every level and having the time and flexibility to choose your own hike on the day makes it that little bit more special. We'll pass your kind words on to the guide. Hope to see you back in Tassie soon!
Cradle Mountain was beautiful and we had a lovely day for travel; however, I was not impressed with the tour overall. We have been on at least 10 other Viator tours (mainly Europe) that we have rated well. We chose Viator for their reputation and our past positive experiences with them. However, this day was not ideal. The tour bus was old, small, and not comfortable. The tour guide did not fully engage the tour participants and his driving was we thought, at times, a little risky. It was clear, though, that he did have quite a bit of local knowledge to share. So, some positives and some negatives hence my three-star rating.
This was Great tour. It was an easy way to experience Cradle mountain that leaves you wanting for more. Elaine, our tour guide was very helpful throughout the entire day and was patient with the group. We had 2 choices for the hike. Depending on fitness level, it is possible to do both but with very little stopping or resting. You might want to check with your guide first. Elaine helped us make the decision on what hikes to do. We even stopped to see some wombats. The tour promptly started at 7:30am and ended at 5:30pm. Everything was on schedule. The weather was also very good so that plays a factor in enjoying the views at the park. The experience was worth it.
Thank you for the lovely review. We’re so glad you enjoyed exploring Cradle Mountain and felt supported by Elaine throughout the day. Offering flexible hike options, keeping to schedule and spotting wildlife like wombats are all part of the experience we aim to deliver. We appreciate you choosing Tours Tasmania.

This tour to Cradle mountain felt completely surreal from start to finish. The landscapes were breathtaking, with misty rain-washed scenery that made everything feel almost otherworldly. Walking among the huge, ancient trees was a highlight - the forest felt timeless and alive. The sound of mighty waterfalls added so much atmosphere and the steady rain just made it more powerful. Seeing the vast, quiet lake wrapped in clouds was just magical. Unfortunately due to the rain the visibility was limited but itinerary is flexible here so we went for alternative routes instead. This made the experience feel safe and well organised and I really appreciate the effort of making this trip a truly enjoyable and unique adventure. I definitely want to return to this place one day and explore more tracks and trails. Overall it's a must-have trip if you go to Tasmania. This Cradle Mountain tour was absolutely surreal, from beginning to end. The scenery was breathtaking: the foggy, rain-washed landscapes created a sense of something almost unreal and fabulous. Walking among the huge ancient trees was one of the most striking moments - the forest seemed eternal and alive. The powerful noise of the waterfalls filled everything with an atmosphere of force, and the incessant rain only reinforced that impression. The view of the vast, quiet lake shrouded in clouds was truly magical. Unfortunately, the rain reduced visibility, but the programme proved flexible and we followed alternative routes. This made the trip safe and well organized, and I truly appreciate the efforts of our guide, which made this tour a truly enjoyable and unique adventure. All in all it is a must-have trip if you go to Tasmania. I definitely want to come back here one more time to explore more trails and routes.
Thank you for joining our Cradle Mountain Adventure Active Day Tour. Your description captures the magic of the park so well. Even with the rain and mist, it is wonderful to hear the ancient forests, waterfalls and cloud wrapped lake made the day feel surreal. We are glad the flexible itinerary helped you enjoy the experience safely and comfortably. Cradle Mountain is a place that keeps calling people back and we hope you return to explore more of its beautiful trails. Hope you are taking home some wonderful Tasmanian memories.

The short walk were great to see wild life didn't do the 6 klm walk as it was to wet saw some wombat on the short walk
Hi Leanne, Thank you for joining our Cradle Mountain Adventure Active Day Tour. We are glad you enjoyed the shorter walk and the chance to see wildlife along the track. The longer walk can be tricky in wet weather, so it is great you still had a memorable time in the park. Warm regards from The Tours Tasmania Team.
Wonderful tour guide, who was easygoing and helpful . Immersed in nature with the snowcap mountains and glistening Lake
