Mt Field / Mt Wellington Explorer

Brief Itinerary

This tour is 2 nights/3 days in duration, and is based from our Wilderness Retreat near New Norfolk, 40km from Hobart. We take a short drive each day through the picturesque
Derwent Valley, to the National Park and our walks.

There are no bags to carry, our walks each day are easy to moderate, and cover a wide range of amazing country from dense forests to alpine scenery and mountain tarns.

Day 1 includes the magnificent Russell Falls, the Tall Tree Circuit and Lady Barren Falls. Day 2 takes us on an alpine walk across the Tarn Shelf. On Day 3 we do a series of walks on Mt Wellington as well as driving to the summit.
