Join Tarkine Trails and discover the beauty of Tasmania's North West on a true small group hiking tour with a focus on genuine sustainable travel and connection. Pick from Tasmania's only multi day rainforest treks in the takayna / Tarkine or experience one of the remotest coastal expeditions in Australia, along the north west coastline. These treks are an immersive trekking experience of a lifetime and we offer both moderately graded accommodated day walks and harder full pack remote expeditions in this unique and threatened wilderness. Tarkine Trails is proudly part of the Trek Tours Australia family, continuing the legacy of offering truly unique and genuine takayna / Tarkine experiences.

The Lobster Ponds is a tourist and educational destination providing information about the endangered and threatened freshwater lobster, listed as the largest in the world. You will have a guided tour of the ponds which is set in amongst Tasmania's trees. Enjoy a coffee from our café, serving light refreshments overlooking the beautiful Flowerdale hills and valleys. Our current project involves constructing a bird aviary to house orange bellied parrots which like the lobster is critically endangered.
