10 Days Out - Launceston
Additional Information
Australian TASafari 4WD Camping Adventures offer active camping tours to remote areas of Tasmania. Our groups are small, so the tours are more personal (maximum of 9 people). Our Tasmanian guides are fully qualified, experienced, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. We believe that to truly experience the Tasmanian wilderness, bush camping is a must.
Our tours are unique in Tasmania because not only do we take you to the places you have heard about, such as Cradle Mountain and Wineglass Bay, we take you to remote, lesser known areas. Many of the places we go can be accessed by 4WD only.
TASafari tours are at a relaxed pace - we don't drive long distances every day. We want to show you more of what Tasmania has to offer. Our tours are designed for fit and active people, and include lots of bushwalks/hiking. Try a bit of fishing - you may even catch your dinner!

Tour Description
This tour takes you on a full circuit of Tasmania, beginning Tasmania’s wild and remote west coast. We aim to stay away from the crowds, from camping in the bush to sleeping beside the ocean under the stars. Enjoy bushwalks through Cradle Mountain, the Tarkine and Lake St Clair. Cross the west coast’s Pieman River at Corinna, a remote settlement and camp beside the Southern Ocean. Marvel at Tasmania’s tallest waterfall, Montezuma Falls and glow-worms of Marakoopa, drive through Franklin-Gordon Wild Rivers National Park. Visit some of Australia’s tallest trees in the Styx Valley.
Then the second half of the tour takes us through beaches forests mountains of Tasmania’s scenic east coast. In the first four days we will visit the Tasman Peninsula and its giant sea cliffs, Freycinet Peninsula where we’ll climb up through the hazards to view magical Wineglass Bay. Then venturing further north we will walk through the spectacular Blue Tier mountains and forests, famous for its giant ferns and eucalypts, ending up on the north east coast with arguably some of the world’s best beaches at Bay of Fires.
Each day we participate in walks from 1- 5 hours and travel by four-wheel-drive troop carriers and Landrovers which are ideal to access remote areas. Each night we experience bush camping and delicious meals with campfire cooking. When we camp we use tents or you can sleep under the stars and we supply cosy swags. We see Tasmania’s unique wildlife in the wild.
