Just returned from my trip to Tasmania. We really had a relaxing time there, Tasmania is full of wonderful nature spots and sights, just the right thing for a nature lover like me...Tasmania has got 1000 faces - wonderful beaches in the south, high mountains and rain forests in the centre and rough coasts in the north. Especially the centre is deserted, we drove for hours without seeing an other car...
We were 7 people, so we rented a minivan to travel the island. Tasmania is the farest south point of Australia, check out the map how close it is to the Southpole, so we expected it to get really cold. But in fact we were quite happy with the weather, I even got a sunburn :-)
We flew into Hobart, the capital of Tasmania, but just spent some time for breakfast there and travelled on to Port Arthur, where we visited the ruins of one of the most cruel prisons of the old British Empire. It's an amazing place and even it was abandoned in 1850, it still has got a dusky mood there.
Travelling along the coast we arrived at the Freycinet National Park. We grabbed our hiking boots and discovered this amazing place with spectacular 360 degrees views and prestine beaches.
After a short night in the backpackers, we routed into the backcountry of the island, an endless road curving up from the coast to nearly 1000m above sealevel, and finally arrived at the Cradle Mountain National Park. Ok, this was the coldest spot where I have been in Australia so far! The rangers told us that we are lucky with the weather, the days before it even snowed...Anyway, it was too cold and windy to perform our planned 6 hours hiking trip, so we just hanged out and strolled in the cool temperate rainforest.
Our last stop was the north coast at Devonport. The coast there was one of my favorites, I just could sit there for hours watching the waves breaking at the rocks...
Back in Melbourne again and already thinking about my next trip...
As you know, a photo can tell more than 1000 words, so check out the Tasmania photos
