Freycinet National Park - Consisting of more than 24,700 acres of natural beauty. There is evidence of ancient Aboriginal settlement here and wonderful pristine coastal walks.
To the south of the continent of Australia, Tasmania offers magnificent untouched wilderness areas with rushing whitewater rivers, rugged coastlines and trees thousands of years old.
With more than a fifth of Tasmania being under heritage and ecological protection, Tasmania is a splendid getaway from busy Sydney and Melbourne, or even the rest of the world.
These vast untouched areas continue to attract visitors from all over the world. Combined with the fresh tastes of Tasmanian food including seafood, specially brewed beers and flavourful wines it will continue to do so.
