Escape from the World in Tasmania
The Australian Island with Something for Everyone
With its breath-taking natural beauty, deserted beaches and pretty villages, the sparsely-populated island of Tasmania offers the perfect escape from the rest of the world.
Affectionately known as “Tassie,” Tasmania lies 150 miles (240 kilometers) from the south-east coast of Australia. Regular flights and ferry services connect Tasmania with the mainland.
Your visit to Tasmania can be as active or as laid-back as you like. Explore the great outdoors or just relax in the bars, cafes and restaurants of Hobart or Launceston.
Hiking in Tasmania
Hiking is a popular activity in Tasmania. You can go it alone or join a guided hike through the wilderness areas and national parks.
Inhale the fresh, unpolluted air while walking through lush green forests to discover rugged mountain peaks, cascading white waterfalls, and clear blue lakes.
