Stanley - The Nut
24 février 2021, Australie ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C
The Nut - a kind of table mountain surrounded by the sea with lots of wildlife on it. Could it be any better? Probably not! That was a fun hike!

The Nut (Die Nuss) ein Berg mit einem großen Plateau und vielen Tieren umgebeben vom Meer. Es könnte kaum besser sein. Eine sehr schöne Wanderung!En savoir plus

Jour 53
Stanley
24 novembre 2021, Australie ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C
The tiny town of Stanley, in the shadow of the The Nut was next on the list, but before leaving Burnie we visited Burnie Park that we had driven past the day before. The rose display here was just magnificent and as it was early morning they were all in full glory. Some with delightful scents and some without but all just beautiful. They grow so well down here. Photo is in the Burnie stop.
In Stanley we stopped at the RV Park that the Golf Club provides, again (almost) right on the beachfront. After setup it was off to The Nut. We had visited on the last trip but thought it was worth a return. The afternoon was quite misty but the winds were light. Lucky we did as the next day the chairlift was not operating because of strong winds. We took the chairlift up and walked down after walking around the top. It really is an incredible natural structure.En savoir plus

Smithton - Tarkine Drive
26 novembre 2021, Australie ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C
Based at Smithton we drove the Tarkine Drive Circuit. The drive itself is a bit of a marketing ploy that ties a few roads together under a catchy name. Some of the spots along the way are quite spectacular though. The Sinkhole, Trowutta Arch, Dempster Plains and the Julius River are all worth a look.En savoir plus

Jour 9
Stanley
9 septembre 2022, Australie ⋅ ☁️ 11 °C
We woke to the sad news that the Queen had passed away. It's funny the things in life you remember. Places you were when significant things happened. I guess we'll always remember sitting in the sunshine at a little camp-site at Crayfish Creek, Tasmania when we heard that the Queen had died. What an amazing woman she was.

After cooking breakfast and enjoying the sunshine we packed up and headed to Stanley.

We drove straight to 'The Nut' and headed up the very steep walk to the plateau and then did the walk around the top. The views were amazing! Well worth the stop. We decided we didn't want to spend $24 for the chair lift coming back down so walked it.

The township is so beautiful, historic and very well kept, we started driving through but I'd keep getting him to stop so I could jump out and get a photo so we stopped and wandered around. Had lunch at the old Stanley Hotel which was lovely though Bart had to duck through all the doorways 😄

About to head to Arthur River for the night.En savoir plus

Voyageur Barton in the sun rays 👍. Dad walked up & back down The Nut, you captured the views perfectly. We loved ‘back in time’ Stanley, quaint. Lush & green Tassie. 💚

Jour 523
Rocky Cape NP
12 février 2015, Australie ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C
Once you can sleep on the bouncy ferry, you are in "Denvonport". There I had to decide which way to go first!
I took the Western Wilderness. So I got to the "Rocky Cape" NP, today. Where I could go for a walk along the rough coast.
The wether was already Tasmania typicall cloudy, windy and rainy!

Nachdem man bei starkem Seegang mal schlafen kann, ist man auch schon in "Denvonport". Wo ich mich zu entscheiden hatte, was ich zuerst besichtige.
Die entscheidung fiel auf den "Wilden Westen".
So konnte ich dann heute auch noch im "Rocky Cape" eine Wanderrung machen. Diese führte mich entlang der Küste.
Das Wetter war schon heute typisch für Tasmanien mit Wolken, Regen und Wind.En savoir plus

In the monig I visited the "Egde of the World" in "Arthur River" which is a nice coastal scenery. I continued thru the "Tarkine Forrest" to the "Cradle Mountain". For information on the "Overland Track".
The end of the day made then a Walk to the "Montezuma" Falls. Where I could get in touch with my first swing bridge!

An diesem Morgen habe ich das "Ende der Welt"(ist übrigens bei "Arthur River") besichtigt, eine raue Küstenlandschaft. Danach bin ich durch den "Tarkine" Wald weiter zum "Cradle Mountain", wo ich mich über den "Overlandtrack" informiert habe.
Als Abschluss bin ich Abends dann noch zum "Montezuma" Wasserfall gegangen, dort hatte ich auch meine erste Begegnung mit einer Swing Bridge.En savoir plus

An der Nordküste
12 janvier 2021, Australie ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C
Nach diesem Monstrum von Wanderung gestern haben wir es heute ruhig angehen lassen.

In Wynyard war Wäsche zu machen, das Auto war in der Werkstatt, und wir nutzten die Zeit für ein bisschen ausruhen am nahen Fluss.

Als wir weiter fuhren, ging es and nahe Table Cape, von wo man super Ausblicke auf die Küstenlinie hat.

Wir haben den Rocky Cape Nationalpark besucht, der Name ist hier Programm.

Den Abschluss machte der Sonnenuntergang, den wir nicht komplett erleben konnten wegen starkem kalten Wind, in Stanley mit Ausblick auf The Nut.En savoir plus

Jour 5
Stanley and Smithton
1 janvier 2021, Australie ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C
Walking back to the van this morning heard a russle in the underbrush. Thought it would just be a lizard. Was a... pademelon...I think...might have been a wallaby. Managed to get Suzie to get some photos as I didn't have my phone on me. Super cute, and not bothered by our presents at all

Long drive to The Nut at Stanley. Caught the chair lift up. Beautiful scenery. Very windy. Learnt about the moonbirds and a little about the Aboriginal people of the area. (And the terrible things the settlers did to them.) Fuck the Europeans were horrible.

Then the drive to Smithton where we're camped tonight. Lovely spot on the river. A family of ducks came to visit us at the van. Begging for food I think. Bought homemade blackberry jam from the caravan reception. One for us...one for Mum and Dad.En savoir plus

This is the plug of an extinct volcano and we are 143m from the ground!! A plug is formed when the magma hardens in the volcanic vent and over time the outside of the volcano erodes and the plug is left.

Now I have walked around on two plugs, the first being Edinburgh Castle as the Castle was also built on one!!En savoir plus

Jour 56
Arthur River
27 novembre 2021, Australie ⋅ ⛅ 15 °C
Over to the wild west coast to stay at Peppermint Campground at Arthur River. This was a Tasmania Parks & Wildlife camp where we had to get a permit from the Parks staff at the visitor centre next door. When we arrived there was hardly a place to park because of the number of vehicles towing ATVs parked there. It was a real thing on the west coast, probably because of the open beaches and wild terrain. I parked the van and setup while Faye went to arrange the permit. 30 minutes later I wondered where she got to so went up to the centre. The "very" helpful ranger was explaining in great detail every point of interest, walk, lake or bend in the road of the area. I could see Faye's eyes glazing over. We finally escaped and went for an explore to the "Edge of the World" which I Never knew actually existed.En savoir plus
