Freycinet Wilderness Area
On your travel in Australia, visit the Freycinet Wilderness Area, a stunning coastal national park where you can hike, cycle or sea kayak, and watch for black cockatoos, wallabies, wombats, and fairy penguins. The park’s signature feature is Wineglass Bay which was recently named the world’s most beautiful beach by Conde Nast Traveler. Stay at an award-winning eco-lodge for a relaxing getaway.
Cradle Mountain
Your Australia vacation will be more memorable after visiting Cradle Mountain. Explore the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Cradle Mountain/Lake St. Clair area. Stay at a superb, award-winning ecolodge, or enjoy spectacular hut-to-hut trekking.
Hobart
A bounty of scenic blessings and a bustling harbor make Hobart a very pleasant stop. Take a coffee at the waterfront, with its beautiful sandstone warehouses, and then meander through streets lined with neo-classical and Georgian period pieces, intriguing for architecture buff and neophyte alike. Don’t miss the well-done Maritime Museum. A rich colonial tradition, in all of its attendant triumph and tragedy, provides for an insightful glimpse into Australia’s colonial legacy.
Port Arthur Penal Colony
We suggest a visit to this historic area to see the former prison area and lunatic asylum. The colony was also a center of many a characteristic 19th century industry, including shipbuilding, coal mining and brick making. >>Extended Journeys: West Australia
