It’s been a while since I have been on any adventures in Tasmania but I have recently been showing a friend around Hobart city who has just moved to Tassie.

Not an avid walker but want take a stroll to stretch your office legs and working-from-home shoulder? Snug Falls would be a great spot for you!

This enchanting valley nicknamed by locals the ‘valley of love’ will steal your heart for much more than a day. There is a reason why it encompasses one of Australia's best towns (New Norfolk bronze award for top tourism town).

It's important when planning a trip to take into consideration each individual's personal circumstances. This is the difference between a regular run of the mill tour operator and one that is bespoke or let's even say one that genuinely cares about its customers. This is what we strive for at the Tasmanian Travel and Information Centre and something I hopefully managed to emulate during my family's 5 day trip to Cradle Mountain and Strahan over Easter.

After walking the amazing Cape Hauy Track on our recent visit to the Tasman Peninsula, the tin lids (10 & 13) and I went looking for a slightly easier walk the following day. We decided to tackle the 8km Mount Brown track. This out and back trail starts at the Remarkable Cave car park about 10km south of the township of Port Arthur and also includes the option to visit Crescent Bay. This was a much gentler walk than Cape Hauy but still provided us with more spectacular views of my favourite section of coastline.

Maria island is one of Tasmania’s must do experiences. The island is a 70 minute drive from the Hobart CBD to Triabunna followed by a short ferry ride to access the island. Maria Island is approximately 115 square kilometres in size and one of many National parks in Tasmania. The island was once a bustling probationary convict settlement and many of these colonial buildings still stand today. The island is now almost uninhabited except for our Park Rangers.
