The Region is renowned
for its lakes, button
grass plains, rugged
scenery and challenging
weather conditions.

The Tasmanian Trail offers a pathway
across the Central Highlands linking
the largely rural pathway of the north
and north west coast with the communities of the upper Derwent
Valley and the gateway to Hobart, the Capital City of Tasmania.

The route across the Central Highlands is not for the novice and poses several challenges even for the most experienced.

Equestrians venturing along the Central
Highlands route should be aware of the
use of roads to make a number of
pathway connections.

People undertaking this section of the
Tasmanian Trail are further advised to
travel with company and in the case of
equestrians with a support vehicle.
Alternative pathways that may be more
user friendly are presently being
investigated.

 
The challenging journey across the
Central Highlands is followed by a
descent into the Derwent Valley – home
to the hop industry, historic properties,
tourism attractions and the Derwent River
which winds its way towards the Capital
City of Hobart.

Travellers may like to take time to visit
local points of interest, such as the Oast
House, spend time in the Mt. Field
National Park and check out the Maydena
Adventure Hub.
