Corinna Wilderness Experience

Corinna Wilderness Experience Corinna Wilderness Village. At home in the Wilderness. Welcome to Corinna Wilderness Village.

At Corinna, in the western wilderness of Tasmania, nature is the hero. We invite you to Corinna where you can feed your soul and nourish your senses, in and around this remote settlement on the banks of a primitive river – an unforgettable experience that unlocks the secrets of the ancient takayna/Tarkine rainforest and the wild west coast of Australia's southernmost state.

The Tannin Restaurant is named after the tannin-stained waters of the Pieman River.

The river runs the colour of dark tea, stained by the ancient buttongrass plains and rainforest upstream. It is one of those small, true details that connects a meal at Corinna to the place it is served in.

The kitchen uses Tasmanian salmon, Tasmanian scotch fillet, and seasonal produce sourced locally wherever possible. Dinner bookings are essential in peak season. Lunch runs noon until 2pm without bookings.

The Tarkine Hotel also has the Ahrberg Bar for pre-dinner drinks, a Tasmanian whisky list with tasting notes, and homemade muffins from VJ's Bakery in Somerset.

Laura came alone, went on the boat cruise, hired a kayak, had dinner at the restaurant every night, and said she will be back.

She also said it was lovely to live without reception and Wi-Fi for a few days. That is the thing most people mean when they say they need a holiday and do not quite know how to ask for it.

People ask how long to stay at Corinna, and well... the honest answer is: longer than you planned 😅

One night is enough to arrive, eat, sleep, and leave. Two nights is enough to start to hear the place. Three nights is when it begins.

The walks take a full day. The kayak to Lovers Falls takes another. Wildlife spotting asks for early mornings and patience... and somewhere in the middle of all of it, you stop thinking about what you left behind.

Corinna - Where You Leave The World Behind

The Trail Hiking Australia feature published this week captured something we hear from guests often, that this place keeps revealing itself the slower you move through it 🥾

Darren and Julie spent day two kayaking to Lovers Falls, walking the Savage River and the Link Walk. It was on that final stretch that the forest, as Darren wrote, "had been keeping its own secrets."

"A mass of vivid orange caps, dozens of them, erupting from bright green moss like something that had no business being that colour... a cluster of coral fungi in a red so intense it seemed to glow against the dark wet earth. And smaller still, almost invisible unless you were already looking: tiny blue fungi, translucent, ghostly, and impossibly delicate."

This is the takayna/Tarkine in May - The forest performs this way every autumn; you just need to be moving slowly enough to notice it.

Around 1910, a man maintained the road in and out of Corinna. He lived in a small cottage on the edge of the rainforest, forty square metres, open plan, with a gas heater and a window that looked out at the Pieman. Roadman's Cottage is still there.

The gas heater is still in the corner. The window still looks at the Pieman. There is a double bed, a small kitchenette, a private ensuite and a verandah where you can sit with a coffee in the morning and listen to the river move. It suits a couple coming for a few quiet days.

Especially in May, when the forest is doing its best work and the cottage takes the edge off a cool morning. There is no Wi-Fi. There is no phone reception. There is just this.

Picture this... the track climbs steadily out of the wet eucalypt, past myrtle beeches that have never seen fire, until the trees begin to thin and the buttongrass takes over.

This is Mt Donaldson, about 9 kilometres from Corinna by road, then a return walk to a summit that gives you the entire region in a single sweep.

The Pieman threading its way to the coast. The dark green of the Tarkine spreading north as far as you can see. On a clear day, the Southern Ocean glinting to the west.

It is exposed up there. Bring layers. Take your time.

Then come back down to a warm cottage and an even warmer meal at the Tarkine Hotel.

Fungi Month has become one of the most anticipated events on the Corinna calendar, and 2026 builds on a genuinely remarkable 2025... 🍄

Two sold-out workshops, a photography competition with a Tarkine Giants trail shoe prize (more information coming soon!) and the knowledge that Fungi Month 2027 is already locked in.

Every May, the forest floor beneath the ancient myrtle beeches at Corinna Wilderness Village comes alive in a way that takes most people completely by surprise. Vivid toadstools push through the moss. Delicate fungi emerge from old timber and bark. Species that exist nowhere else on Earth appear quietly on the trails that leave directly from the village.

You do not need a workshop to experience it. A standard accommodation booking throughout May and June puts you in the middle of one of the most extraordinary natural displays in Australia.

Something is happening on the forest floor beneath the myrtle beeches, and it has been happening every May for longer than anyone has been watching.

The takayna/Tarkine's fungi season brings a natural display that is among the most diverse in Australia. Vivid toadstools pushing through moss, delicate gilled caps emerging from ancient timber, species that exist nowhere else on Earth.

None of this requires a workshop to find. It requires comfortable footwear, a willingness to move slowly, and some patience with the light.

The trails from Corinna walk straight into it....
