Waterfalls
26. januar 2023, Australien ⋅ 🌙 5 °C
Today was a day of travel and waterfalls.

Began the morning with buying lunch. I got myself a sausage roll because it was the cheapest thing and I had minimal food left. Saw the cutest dog, he was so sweet and tried to steal everyone's food.

From there it was one hell of a drive to a waterfall. A very cute waterfall at the end of a very short walk. Was nice to stretch out and stop moving for a minute before it was right back into the bus.

Hit up Lake Sinclair next. It is the deepest fresh water later in Tasmania and also the end of the Overland Track. You can either walk round it to complete the 7 days, or get the free boat at 6 days .

It was bloodly freezing but gorgeous. I can imagine it on a warm day full of people and families. Apparently it is tradition to jump in the lake once you finish the Overland, dont think anyone was doing it today though!

Our final stop was at yet another forest and waterfall walk. This walk took us past the tallest trees in Tasmania and to two waterfalls. Unfortunately it hadn't rained much lately so neither were flowing at their true capacity but were still cool.

Then, once more on the road back to Hobart. It was taking forever but finally we arrived back. Exhausted, I checked into my hostel, bought myself a pot noodle and hit the hay. Had a bit of a chat with the girls in my room before I slept. They work on the cherry farms and I am once more glad I do not work on the farms.Læs mere

Rejsende what's wrong with working on a cherry farm?
03.02.2023SvarOversætte
Rejsende they do 10hr days, 6 days a week in the freezing cold. the cherries are chilled or frozen and they have to either make the boxes or quality control. I would freeze to death and fully zone out to the point where I was doing nothing

Russel Falls, Mount Field National Park
28. februar 2023, Australien
I didn't stopp on my way to My Field National Park. Sometimes there was no place to stopp where I would like to stopp and sometimes I missed the stops. But I think that was not so bad, i anyway arrived quite late at Mt Field National Park, around 4:20 pm.
Went inside the Visitor Center and bought a National Park Pass. That one you need i all National Parks in Tasmania. I got one for 2 month, because so I just need to buy one and I am anyway visiting at least 3 parks and than it's also cheaper. And I don't need to remember and can also just stop and do a walk, if I see one. That's very good.
As i was super tired the lady recommended me to to the walk to Russel Falls, Horseshoe Falls and the Tall trees Walk, what would take around 45 minutes.
It is as a nice and easy walk to Russel Falls. And how beautiful are they. Falling down over many stairs. Really nice to see. The track to Horseshoe Falls was mich more challenging. Up hill it goes with a lot of stairs.. Nice.. 😬
Had to stop only once to catch my breath.Læs mere

Horseshoe Falls and Tall Trees Walk
28. februar 2023, Australien ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C
After making up all the stairs, it's supposed to be around 200 stairs, i think, it was a short flat walk to the Horseshoe Falls. Really nice this one's too, but I guess it's more impressive with more water running down.
I have noticed, that it's quite dry everywhere. The grass is brown, you barely see some green grass around.
From Horseshoe Falls ist a nice walk to the Tall Trees Walk. Also a really nice walk a little bit up and down, but not to bad. The trees are really amazing and it's hard to see the real size on the pictures.
Unfortunately I saw no wildlife, just some birds. But no wallabies, Wombat, Echnidas or so. But maybe that's because I was so tired and it was hard to focus on the path on the way back. I might have missed them.
Luckily it was just a short drive to my accommodation for to night, like 10 minutes or so. There I arrived around 6:30pm.
I have booked Scouts Hall, really nice small apartment with all you need, except a place to cook. I had a shower and then I was "cooking" some rice in the microwave. That's actually worked out pretty good. Was eatable.
And then I watched some TV and went to bed around 9:30pm.Læs mere

Mount Field National Park
19. marts, Australien ⋅ ☁️ 24 °C
Flew over from Melbourne to Hobart, Tasmania, just an hour's flight. Collected camper and stocked up on food & drinks. A man at the tourist office in Hobart printed out a suggested tour of the island for us and we spent the first night in Mount Field National Park. We were too late for a powered site, but it was fine running off battery. We walked to Russell Falls and climbed the 200 steps to Horseshoe Falls. Woke next morning to find the camper flooded because we'd left the roof light open and it rained quite heavily during the night.Læs mere

▪️Dort sind wir den einstündigen "Tall Trees Track" gelaufen
▪️Durch den Regenwald mit riesigen Bäumen, vorbei an 2 Wasserfällen: "Horseshoe Falls" und "Russel Falls"
▪️Als wir gegen Abend auf unserem Campingplatz ankamen, hat es heftig gewittert, geblitzt und geregnet
▪️Nach ca. 30min war alles wieder vorbei, dann konnten wir unser Vorzelt aufbauen und Essen kochen
▪️Haben mit den Jungs ein letztes Mal zusammen gesessen und Karten gespielt - dann trennten sich unsere Routen
▪️Julia und der Saarländer Chris haben wieder die halbe Nacht alleine "gequatscht" :P

Mt Field National Park
13. april 2023, Australien ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C
Off through the Derwent Valley to Mt Field National Park. Today was 'Bucket List' day for Jen. Jonnell was perplexed why we were going such a long way just to see a plant! Well ... it wasn't just any old plant, it was Nothofagus gunnii - a deciduous beech found only in Alpine areas in Tasmania. Having local knowledge on our side (Sue) - we found it in its glory at Lake Fenton. It was just starting to change colour.
We also walked around Lake Dobson through the ferns and pandani forest and also to Russell Falls.Læs mere

Les Fagus de Mont Field
16. april 2023, Australien ⋅ ☁️ 9 °C
Pour le premier road trip de Claire et Camille, nos hôtes ont décidé de nous emmener au parc national de Mont Field. Là-bas, on trouve les fagus. Ce sont les seuls arbres natifs et endémiques à la Tasmanie qui évoluent en fonction des saisons. L’automne étant là depuis un petit mois, c’est le moment pour admirer les différentes teintes d’oranges dans le paysage montagneux de Mont Field.
Paysage d’automne mais températures hivernales avec moins de 5º pendant la pause déjeuné.
Il y a aussi une station de ski là-haut !Læs mere

Meadowbank Vineyard
4. april 2023, Australien
The best vineyard I've been to, and I think this was my 5th.
Beautiful vineyard, wonderful wines, nice staff, and the food was amazing!

Meadowbank Winery
The guy who started it was a first and pioneer of growing grapes and making wine in Tasmania as he was told it was too cold here to grow grapes. They have 240 hectoacres of vineyard from Mount Field (where I saw the falls) to the Danbar River. They specialize in sparkling wine, riesling, and pinot noir.Læs mere

St. Claire's NP & Franklin-Gordon River
21. januar 2020, Australien ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C
Wir fahren weiter Richtung Süden und erkunden die Gegend um den Lake St. Claire und den Franklin River Nature Trail.

Der St. Claire Lake gehört zum Cradle Mountain Nationalpark und ist ca. 100km entfernt vom eigentlichen Cradle Mountain.
Am See gibt es diverse Wege um spazieren zu gehen. Wir nehmen den recht kurzen Aboriginal Walk an dessen Wegesrand aber in regelmäßigen Abständen Informationen zu den Aboriginals aus der Region aufgebaut sind. Die Tafel erzählen von der Unterdrückung und den teils unmenschlichen Verträge, zu denen die Ureinwohner gezwungen wurden, um ihr Land abzugeben. Eine Tafel hat sich auch mit Buschfeuern beschäftigt, die die Aboriginals in regelmäßigen Abständen selbst gelegt haben, um die Büsche nicht zu groß werden zu lassen und sich durch kontrollierte Brände selbst zu schützen.
Zurück geht es am Ufer des Sees, der sehr ruhig und natürlich ist.

Danach wirkt der Franklin River Nature Trail wie ein Power Nap. Mit nur knapp 1 km Länge verspürt man maximale Erholung. Der Weg führt durch einen unberührten moosigen Regenwald bis zu einem (im Somer) leise plätschernden Fluss, dessen Anblick zum Verweilen und Durchatmen einläd.Læs mere

Tarraleah Falls
1. marts 2023, Australien ⋅ ☁️ 13 °C
I woke up around 8 o'clock this morning. Have to admit that I have been awake quite a few times at night. There are many big trucks passing all the time and they are really loud. So I woke up many times. But still i got to sleep a little bit and I am feeling fresher than yesterday. I had a nice breakfast, packt up my stuff, tried to organize my car, but gave up quickly and left Scout Hall shortly before 10 am. First Stop, the berry farm at the end of the road to buy some lovely raspberry. Oh they are soooo good! 😋
After that I went to Tarraleah Falls. It took me a little bit more than 1 hour to get there.
It's so sad to see so many dead wallabies beside the road. 😥
My first real wildlife encounter was.... A snake! I wondered what was laying on the road in front of me, as I get close i was like: Oh that's a snake. Luckily it was no other cars around as so I could drive around the snake. Later i learned that it was a black snake and the black snake is really comment here in Tasmania.
The short walk to the Tarraleah Falls was very nice and easy in the beginning but became mor challenging after a while as it was going steep down the hill and I had to climber over and cross under some fallen trees. But it's anyway a really nice walk through a beautiful bush and the waterfall was really nice too.
There is hydro station and the view from the viewing platform over the valley was really nice! From here I kept driving towards Lake Staint Clair.Læs mere
