Devonport and Cradle Mountain are the main port of call when exploring North West Tasmania.
Located 83 km from Devonport, Cradle Mountain is an integral part of Tasmania's World Heritage area. The region is characterised by rugged peaks and a wide range of glacial formations - glacial lakes, moraine boulders, scooped valleys and waterfalls. The jagged crags of Cradle Mountain characterise this well-known landscape, while ancient rainforest and alpine heath lands, button grass and stands of colourful beech provide a range of environments to explore. This is a must visit destination for mountaineering adventurers, thrill seekers, outdoor enthusiasts or family holidays with the various walks around the crater lake to suit all levels.
The regional city of Devonport is the terminal for the Bass Strait ferry service The Spirit of Tasmania car and passenger ships are almost landmarks in this city. The city has a population of about 22,000 and is surrounded by rich, fertile soil that produces more than 40 per cent of Tasmanias vegetable crops. You can explore Devonports coastline by walking or cycling along Victoria Parade to the Bluff, where Tiagarra Aboriginal Centre explains the areas Aboriginal history and nearby rock carvings. Devonport provides a range of restaurants, cafes, shops, galleries and parks, and is a great base from which to explore North East Tasmania.Photos
