Thread: Going to Tassie

The dunes near queenstown are the henty dunes, haven't been there myself. You can also get onto ocean beach from near strahn, but that's almost 2wd country, well, except for the quicksand on the northern end of the beach.

Peron dunes at StHellens is another one (this is where the buggies race on the east coast) as well as the track from bridport to bellingham in the north.

Hi,
I am in Tassie.
That time of the year the West is very cruisy,
all the same have other vehicles with you; you can come to grief any time of the year if you are not carefull and do not know the area or tracks on the West.

Make sure you drive from Temma down to Sandy Cape. Heaps better that the Henty Dunes. Better than Stockton.

Do yourself a favour and drive from Granville Harbour in to the Pieman River.

Very dangerous in the winter but summer with a cnvot you will have a ball.

The East coast is pretty but the West is where it happens. 4WD, Diving Surfing, Fishing and Bike riding.

Its the best .
cheers

Hi,

Ive been to Tassie a few times, It depends on your time and interests.

Yes Cradle Mountain, Lake Dove etc are great, good hiking if you are into that. The Usual Touristy things are good, however, you will be over there whilst the twilight sailing races are on.

Pretty hard not to get yourself on a boat for the races. Even if you don't go for a race, Give bellrive (not spelt right) yacht club a ring, and take yourself or family out for a sail. (forget motor launches it's not the same).

Anyway - Enjoy your Trip.

Regards

The seal and penguin touirs run out of Stanely are also great fun and very informative...and not too costly. The BEST fish and chip meal can be had at Kermies on the wharf at Stanley. Worth a visit if you are on the north coast.
