 Trek Notes

Montezuma Falls & Ring River Montezuma Falls & Ring River
The magnificant Montezuma Falls lies deep in state forest between Zeehan and Roseberry with many rivers and creeks to cross along the way. It is a delightful place to visit both for the excitement of the journey and for the experience of seeing Tasmania's highest fall up close.
Strahan to Wynyard via Murchison Hwy Strahan to Wynyard via Murchison Hwy
The Murchison Highway is a sealed road in Tasmania’s northwest that starts at Rayna and heads north to the town of Somerset on the coast. This trek passes through many old mining towns such as Zeehan and Rosebery, while offering spectacular mountain scenery, cool thick forests and gentle plateaus. [Feature Story]
