Discover Tasmania Together: Wild Landscapes & Family Comfort
Tasmania is where families can slow down, breathe fresh mountain air and get back to nature. These small-group eco-journeys make it easy, comfortable stays, expert local guides and the right balance of adventure and relaxation.
Walk under towering trees at Mt Field National Park, feel the mist of Russell Falls and cruise the calm waters of the Gordon River through World Heritage rainforest. Head west through Queenstown and Lake St Clair, where short walks, waterfalls and wildlife encounters will delight kids of all ages.
Go north and discover the ancient forests of the Tarkine, the seaside charm of Stanley and the raw beauty of the “Edge of the World”. Then onto Cradle Mountain, where boardwalk trails and alpine lookouts are a family photo opportunity paradise. Nearby towns like Devonport, Sheffield and Launceston show off Tasmania’s creative and community spirit through art, food and festivals.
Along the east coast, explore the Bay of Fires, St Helens and Bicheno before reaching Freycinet National Park. Kids will love spotting wallabies on the track to Wineglass Bay, while you can relax knowing every detail — from meals to transport — is taken care of.
Finish in Hobart and browse the Salamanca Markets, drive up Wellington Park and head to Bruny Island or the Tasman Peninsula for history, wildlife and coastal cliffs.
Every itinerary is designed for comfort, connection and care for the Country. Families travel in small groups, stay in eco-lodges, and leave with stories, not screens — proof that Tasmania’s wild heart is best explored together.

FAQ

Is Tasmania good for kids?

Yes. Tasmania is safe, compact and full of kid-friendly adventures. Short drives, easy walking trails and plenty of wildlife encounters make it perfect for all ages. From feeding wallabies at Bicheno to riding the West Coast Wilderness Railway, every day is something new to explore together.

How long should we allow for a family trip around Tasmania?

7-10 days is a good amount of time for a leisurely circuit of the island. That gives families time to visit the west coast wilderness, Cradle Mountain and the east coast beaches without rushing. Shorter trips from Hobart or Launceston work well for long weekends or school holidays too.

What’s the best time of year for a family holiday in Tasmania?

December to April is warm for beach days and hiking. May to October is cool for nature walks and open fires. Tasmania’s attractions run year-round, so there’s never a bad time to visit.

What kind of accommodation is best for families?

Tasmania has a great range of eco-lodges, family cabins and boutique hotels with kitchens and laundry facilities. Many small-group tours include comfortable accommodation close to nature so families can enjoy the wilderness by day and a warm bed at night.

Are the walks suitable for kids and grandparents?

Yes. Most national parks, including Cradle Mountain, Freycinet and Mt Field, have short, well-marked trails with boardwalks and lookouts. Families can do easy circuits, while older kids or active travellers can do longer walks for those epic views.
