🌿 Tarkine Drive — Tasmania’s Wild Northwest

The Tarkine Drive is one of those rare places where every turn feels like stepping deeper into ancient wilderness. Think towering myrtles, mossy rainforest, sweeping plains and a coastline shaped by the Roaring Forties. Short walks, hidden waterfalls, boardwalks and lookouts make it the perfect slow‑travel escape. If you love quiet roads, fresh air and landscapes that feel untouched, this one stays with you.

Staying at Poet's Cottage Stanley provides the ideal base for this beautiful drive. Geraldine and Dave have other great tips for your Tasmanian Adventure! Now is the time to start planning a visit for Spring 2026!

The Nut in Stanley is actually a volcanic plug that now defines the town’s skyline.

This means the flat-topped formation isn’t a hill or plateau at all. This is why why its sides are so steep and its summit so unusually level.

During your stay at Poet's Cottage, Geraldine and Dave will happily share the hidden gems of this charming coastal village.

They recommend Spring as a particularly beautiful time of year - so now is the time to start planning your Tasmanian Adventure!

The gardens at Highfield House feel like stepping into a quiet chapter of Tasmania’s past. Sweeping lawns, old stone walls, and pockets of colour frame the views across The Nut and Bass Strait. It’s the kind of place where you slow down without even trying — a peaceful blend of history, landscape and simple, timeless beauty.

Spring is the perfect time in Stanley. Secure your accommodation at Poet's Cottage to ensure you can include this gem in your Tasmanian Adventure.
