Ronny Creek Walk

The Ronny Creek Walk was the last of the walks we did at Cradle Mountain. We went looking for platypus and found wombats and other wildlife instead.

Dove Lake Circuit

Dove Lake and Cradle Mountain

The Dove Lake Circuit is the premier day hike here. It wasn’t raining when we arrived so we did it right away.

Cradle Mountain and Launceston

Our three nights at Cradle Mountain were one of the highlights of our trip to Australia. Such a unique and beautiful place, with lots of hiking opportunities. (And beautiful scenery even if you don’t hike!)

Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary

The Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary was one of THE highlights of our trip to Australia. The sanctuary has lots of native animals like wombats, Tasmanian devils, echidnas, koalas, and quolls.

Hobart

Hobart and Tasmania in general may not get the same attention as some of the places on the Australian mainland but it is still definitely worth a visit. We spent a week there and didn’t get bored. We are fortunate enough to have family to host us.
