COMFORTABLE GOURMET GETAWAYS

In Tasmania, eco-friendly doesn’t mean roughing it. In fact, with candlelit gourmet meals and comfortable, elegant lodges on offer, you’ll experience sights, sounds and spectacular views that 5-star resorts simply cannot offer. Here’s our pick of the best gourmet getaways on the East Coast that will leave both you refreshed and the environments you travel through virtually untouched. 

Freycinet Experience Walk: Enjoy a blissful immersion in nature combining coastal and mountain walking - carrying no more than a light day-pack, and return each evening to the secluded Friendly Beaches Lodge to enjoy splendid meals, local wine and a comfortable bed. 

Bay of Fires Lodge Walk: Discover the pristine wilderness along the edge of Mt. William National Park, spot whales or dolphins, feast on mouth-watering local foods and revel in the solitude at your exclusive accommodations on this idyllic short escape. 

Maria Island Walk: There are a few walks on Maria Island, but none like this. Discover the pristine landscapes and intriguing history of Maria Island by day, and then at night relax with a glass of wine at comfortable wilderness camps and the historic Bernacchi House.
