Cradle Mountain Day Tour

Cradle Mountain Day Tour

After departing Launceston we enjoy a short stop in Sheffield – The Town of Murals.  Sheffield is a small and quirky rural village, in the foothills of the mountains.  Sheffield is Tasmania’s own outdoor art gallery, featuring over 100 paintings on the walls of buildings across the town.  The artwork depicts the history of the Cradle Mountain region, and is a great taster before we continue onwards into the mountains.  Arriving into the Cradle Mountain National Park, we prepare for the walking opportunities ahead of us such as Dove Lake.  We aim for around 4 – 5 hours in the National Park, to really make the most of the trails.  We begin with a series of short walks to Rainforest City and Pencil Pine Falls.
