West
In an island of unique experiences, the West Coast is a land apart. Through its craggy mountains and World Heritage Area wilderness, you’ll see thousands of millions of years captured in the ancient rocks, wrought in volcanic fire and scraped clean by ice.
Ride the newly restored Abt railway, now called the West Coast Wilderness Railway. In the fine historic streetscapes of Zeehan, you’ll feel more of the West Coast’s rich mining heritage. Nearby, Rosebery is a true mining town - far below, the drilling goes on. In Tullah enjoy the scenic lakes that create hydroelectricity. In Waratah, the pioneers once mined a mountain of tin - these days, it’s where pure rainwater is bottled. From Strahan, follow the tannin-dark Gordon River into the rainforest, or climb to the Teepookana Plateau. You can see trees that took root many centuries ago, and discover how today’s piners are carefully working the precious Huon pine reserves for the future. Cross the restless waters of Macquarie Harbour and step ashore on Sarah Island. Touch cold stones chiseled by convicts, and gaze towards the chain of mountain peaks that imprisoned them.
While on the West Coast, why not kick up your heels in a stunning boutique hotel or in one of the award-winning cottages & terraces on offer.
