Day Trips in North West Tasmania
Beachside Retreat West Inlet 4WD Tours - Stanley
The far north west of Tasmania is one of the most pristine environments in the world and provides one of the longest coastlines of any Tasmanian municipality, with dense forests, rugged rock faces and wild rivers.
A trip by 7-seater Land Rover with a knowledgeable guide, into these areas - often inaccessible to hire drive cars - will show you places where time has stood still for thousands of years. The country abounds with National parks and forestry reserves, aboriginal middens and rare geological formations.
