Overview

Activity Details

Experience Tasmania in rare seclusion on a privately owned 1,137-acre wilderness estate beside Narawntapu National Park. This guided 7 km walk (9:30 AM – 2:30 PM) explores fossil gullies, she-oak woodland and open grasslands alive with native wildlife.

Led by a local guide specialising in flora, fauna and natural history, you'll uncover the region's geology, ecosystems and cultural storylines. Around midday, enjoy a relaxed Tasmanian picnic-style lunch made from locally sourced ingredients.

With just 4–8 guests per group, the property is entirely yours for the day — no other walkers, no public access, no noise except the bush.

"I've walked in a lot of places. I enjoyed how it felt like we were in the middle of nowhere but in reality, 5 minutes from the road. It gave me a degree of comfort that if anything went wrong, we'd have a easy exit."
