As the first commercial operator on the Franklin River in 1978, this pristine and protected area holds dear to our heart. 

Tasmanian Expeditions continues to guide on the Franklin River entering our 41st year of rafting and whilst four decades has passed, the surrounding wilderness and river remains unchanged.

Wild Australia has released their latest magazine issue themed on the Franklin River, full of history and photos from the 'Saving the River' campaign and we have 5 issues to giveaway.

Still remember being part of the team who ran the Franklin in 1978. Great that the tradition to save Australia's magnificent rivers continues
