• Mount Field National Park - The Hobart Adventurer Day Tour begins with a visit to the stunning Mount Field National Park, a Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area. Guests can explore the enchanting Pandani Grove Nature Walk around Lake Dobson, as well as the beautiful Russell and Horseshoe Falls.
• Lake Dobson - The tour starts with a visit to the picturesque Lake Dobson in the alpine region of Mount Field National Park. Situated at approximately 1,000 meters above sea level, Lake Dobson provides a breathtaking backdrop for the thriving native flora along its shores and is home to a friendly platypus population.

Tour participants have the chance to complete the delightful Pandani Grove Nature Walk, an easy 1.5 km circuit around Lake Dobson through native pandani (giant grass trees), impressive alpine gums, and soft tree ferns. It’s a truly stunning part of the world with exceptionally clean air, perfect for relaxing and escaping the hustle of daily life.

• Russell Falls - After Lake Dobson, the tour proceeds to the Mount Field Visitor Centre, where a short 1.4 km walk leads to the breathtaking Russell Falls, Tasmania’s most photographed waterfall. The walk through the lush, mossy cool-temperate rainforest is as magnificent as the falls, offering plenty of opportunities to appreciate the native flora and fauna.

A brief walk up a set of stairs next to Russell Falls leads to the enchanting Horseshoe Falls, where the cascading water enhances the fairytale-like atmosphere. Guests have about an hour to complete the circuit, allowing for a leisurely pace to fully enjoy the experience.

• New Norfolk - From Mount Field National Park, the tour returns towards Hobart, stopping in the charming historic town of New Norfolk in the Derwent Valley for lunch. Guests can purchase food and drinks at one of the excellent cafes, bakeries, or restaurants, and there is also a large supermarket available.
• Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary - The afternoon segment of the Hobart Adventurer Day Tour includes a visit to the Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary, where guests can get up close with a variety of native animals, including wombats, echidnas, kangaroos, quolls, and the famous Tasmanian Devil.

A 30-minute guided tour is part of the admission fee to Bonorong, where guests will learn about three native species from one of the knowledgeable and friendly keepers. Admission fees are $35.50 for adults and $20.50 for children (not included in the tour price).

• Mount Wellington - The day tour concludes with a trip to the summit of the spectacular kunanyi/Mount Wellington, a must-see destination for visitors to Hobart. Rising 1,271 meters above the city, the views from the summit over Hobart and the Derwent River on a clear day are simply breathtaking, with views towards the wild mountains of the Southwest National Park equally impressive.

There are several dedicated viewing platforms at the summit for guests to take photos, as well as the pinnacle observation shelter featuring a series of informative placards. Guests have about an hour to enjoy all the sights at the summit before descending back down the mountain road to Hobart, where they will be dropped off at their CBD accommodation.
