What to expect

Discover the best of Tasmania’s wilderness, waterfalls, and wildlife on this full-day tour from Hobart. Begin at Mt Field National Park, home to temperate rainforests, giant swamp gums, and some of Tasmania’s most iconic waterfalls. Take the easy forest track to Russell Falls, then continue to Horseshoe Falls and along the Tall Trees Track where eucalypts soar up to 80m high. For keen walkers, the full Three Falls Circuit includes Lady Barron Falls.

After lunch, head to Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary to meet native animals such as Tasmanian devils, wombats, kangaroos, and rare birdlife. Learn from expert keepers about Tasmania’s unique and endangered species.

Finish the day at the summit of kunanyi/Mt Wellington, rising 1271m above Hobart. From here, enjoy sweeping views across the city, Derwent River, and surrounding mountains — the perfect way to end a day filled with rainforest walks, waterfalls, wildlife, and scenery.

We return to Hobart around 5.30pm.

This day tour was fantastic. Mt Field National Park is beautiful and the waterfalls were incredible. If you look closely you can also see platypus in the rivers! The Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary is a nice little stop to see some of the wildlife up close, including Tasmanian Devils and wombats! Richmond is a cute little town with great food and shops, was a perfect place for lunch. Finishing off the day at the top of Mt Wellington (with perfect weather may I add), was an excellent way to finish the tour. While it was freezing, the views are absolutely incredible! Brett was our guide and it is clear he has a true passion for his job. He has profound knowledge of Tasmania’s history, nature and the wildlife, I loved hearing all of his little facts about Tassie. A 10/10 tour, would recommend!

We had a fun day on this tour! Every stop was very unique and just driving around the countryside of Tasmania was beautiful! It was a smaller shuttle bus that holds 20 people plus the driver. The driver explained a lot of things as we were going along, which was nice. We had plenty of time at each of the stops. It was a long day of driving, but it was a very scenic route. Our favorite was definitely the sanctuary where you got to feed the wallabies!

Frequently asked questions

How difficult are the walks at Mt Field?

There is a walking option for different energy levels. The track to Russell Falls is the easiest choice, while you can continue to Horseshoe Falls and the Tall Trees Track if you would like to see more. Fit and active guests can complete the full 6km Three Falls Circuit to Lady Barron Falls, which includes stairs and a longer section of walking.

What wildlife experiences are included at Bonorong?

Your sanctuary entry and an informative keeper-led tour are included. You will have the chance to see Tasmanian devils, wombats, kangaroos and other native animals, hear the stories behind their rescue and conservation, and hand-feed the Forester kangaroos with food provided at the sanctuary.

Is this tour suitable for children and families?

Yes. It is a rewarding choice for families with children aged 8 and over who enjoy wildlife, waterfalls and time outdoors. Children should have good mobility and enough stamina for an active full day. The choice of shorter and longer walks at Mt Field makes it easier for families to select a route that suits their energy level.

Is lunch included, and can I buy food during the day?

Lunch and drinks are not included. You can bring your own lunch, snacks and water or purchase a bakery-style takeaway lunch during the day. The lunch break is usually enjoyed in one of Mt Field National Park’s scenic picnic areas.

How do pickup and return transfers work?

Pickup and drop-off from selected Hobart hotels are included. Pickups normally take place between approximately 7.00am and 7.30am, depending on your location. The tour departs Hobart at around 7.30am and returns at approximately 5.30pm.

What should I wear and bring for the tour?

Wear supportive walking shoes and bring warm layers and a weatherproof jacket. Conditions at Mt Field and kunanyi/Mt Wellington can feel much cooler than central Hobart, even when the city is mild. We also recommend bringing a hat, sunscreen, a large water bottle, lunch or snacks, and a small day bag.

Beautiful day. Brett is passionate about Australia’s fauna. He shared many facts and stories about the native animals of Tasmania. Lovely little hike and waterfalls at Mt Field followed by a super fun visit to Bonorong. Richmond is a darling little town to explore and have lunch and the views from Mt Wellington are amazing. Great day trip.
