The Tarkine Wilderness Walks

 

Located just 35 minutes from Burnie Airport, Tarkine Wilderness Lodge offers walks through the pristine, Tarkine Rainforest.

Your hosts at the Tarkine Wilderness Lodge are experienced guides who can escort you on a safe, yet breathtaking stroll, through the largest temperate rainforests in the Southern Hemisphere, providing visitors with plenty of information on this ancient 60 million year old forest, home to many threatened and endangered species.

During your walk you will see a large variety of plant species ranging from tall Eucalyptus, giant Myrtles, Sassafras, Blackwood and an abundance of ferns, mosses and lichens. The tracks meander gently under the rainforest canopy and pass by several small creeks and rivers.

Walks depart from the Tarkine Wilderness Lodge at 10.30am and cost $35 per person, or $55 per person including BBQ lunch served at 1pm. Group bookings are welcome.

Walks of varying duration can also be tailored to suit your needs.
A walk to the magnificent Arthur River and picnic lunch is also available with a four wheel drive vehicle returning walkers to the lodge.

By taking part in the forest walks and learning first hand from experienced Tasmanian guides, you are helping further to protect our pristine wilderness.
All walks are subject to availability and weather conditions.

You are welcome to stay overnight at the Tarkine Wilderness Lodge, prior to and following the walk.
To avoid disappointment bookings are essential for both walks and accommodation.
