Lake St Clair Lodge - Luxury in the wilderness. Lake St Clair Lodge has been providing accommodation to visitors and explorers here in Cynthia Bay for almost 30 years. We have over 40 well-appointed cabins, offering you a high-end experience in the wilderness. An opportunity for you to breath in the cleanest air in the world by the shore of Australia’s deepest lake. The team has also driven changes in the restaurant and bar. We now offer fully organic menus in both restaurants and cafe. Our menus are seasonal and promote the best of Tasmanian produce whenever possible. This, along with the highest quality Tasmanian beers, wines and spirits will set you up for exploring the mountains, forests and peaks to be found on both day and multi-day walks. We recognise that times are changing, that we live in an increasingly toxic world and that many guests are seeking time away from this during their vacation. In light of this our housekeeping team will prepare your cabin without the use of harsh chemicals or scents, thus ensuring your environment is as pure in your cabin as it is in the mountains. Should you wish, we can prepare your cabin using the latest in ultraviolet cleaning technology – the same technology used in hospital settings to leave your cabin pristine for your arrival.

In the middle of Tasmania, on the Southern Hemisphere's deepest lake, awaits one of Australia's most iconic wilderness experiences: Pumphouse Point. Pumphouse Point is a unique adults-only retreat poised mysteriously over the glacial waters of Lake St Clair. 19 boutique rooms and suites have been thoughtfully created within a magnificent industrial 1930s pump house surrounded by century-old forests, where time grinds to a halt for quiet awe, calm, and reconnection. Pumphouse Point is an entirely unique wilderness experience, from gliding away on e-bikes and rowboats, sharing honesty bars and roaring fire feasts, packing picnics from all-inclusive larders or indulging in a highland massage, it’s no wonder it’s been crowned Australia’s best unique accommodation.

Following an impressive refurbishment from former Antarctic Training Facility to premium alpine accommodation in 2016, Thousand Lakes Lodge is not just a haven from the elements, it’s an essential addition to your Tasmanian adventure – the gateway retreat to your Central Highlands experience in the Heart of Tasmania! “A Place Like No Other” The Central Plateau is almost otherworldly, a beautiful and unique alpine environment. Wrapped inside Tasmania’s World Heritage Wilderness Area, you can simply relax, or explore the history, trails and lakes of this unique alpine wilderness and discover the real Tasmania. Indulge with a book by the roaring fire, gaze outside and watch the world go by. A truly remarkable place to unplug and switch off from the world. Step outside and be immersed in the remote wilderness environment. Whether it is to explore the many alpine tarns, walk the trails of the Central Plateau or to simply soak up the pristine air and wide-open spaces, this place will awaken the soul. A quiet loneliness, a sense of space and freedom that stems from open expanses of windswept moors. Relax, slow-down, recharge and relish the peace and serenity of this natural alpine plateau. Breathe in crisp air, feel spongy moss, taste fresh stream water from crystalline lakes, touch ancient dolerite boulders. Be amazed by the wildlife and experience ever-changing weather.
