Big4 Kelso Sands Holiday & Native Wildlife Park

To know Tasmania is to know its coastline, and this has never been so accessible since the opening of the kanamaluka Trail. Running 6 km from George Town to Low Head, the trail takes in some of the most beautiful and interesting sights of the Tamar Valley - Lagoon Beach, Windmill Point and York Cove. Along its route are museums, historic buildings, nature reserves and the shopping precinct. Continuing to attract tourists and locals, the kanamaluka Trail is enjoyed for walking and cycling and gentle recreational exercise.

Tasmanian chain-saw artist Eddie Freeman has released these historical figures from their imprisonment in the Windmill Point macrocarpa trees. The sculptures depict workmen hauling ashore the telegraph cable that linked Tasmania to the North Island, the cable station was the messaging hub of the state until 1909. Matthew Flinders with his cat Trim, George Bass, and William Paterson are also represented. The site also has a BBQ and a playground featuring a wooden boat named after the HMS Buffalo - the ship that Paterson landed in 1804.

It's a Public Toilet but also a work of art, the sea bird-inspired mural is a burst of colour on George Town's Kanamaluka Trail. The location also offers splendid views of York Cove and the river. The work was planned and painted under the direction of artist Mel McVee with some public participation. It was commissioned by George Town Council.
