Well everyone, it's been a while since we posted (sorry for falling off the social media wagon for a while! Its been a busy busy time). We have finally left Tasmania after spending one year almost to the day, in this wonderful state. 😭😢  We originally thought we'd stay for 3 months in Tasmnaia, but we underestimated the amount there was to see and do there. We were very sad to leave after making some amazing friends and seeing some of the most beautiful parts of this pristine place, but we were excited to see more new sites that we hadn't visited before.

We are now travelling around Victoria. Here, is our final picture of our last glimpses of Tasmania as we left on a stunning day from Devonport. After our smooth sailing on the Spirit of Tasmnaia, we disembarked and drove straight to the Yarra Valley and stayed at the Big 4 Yarra Valley, located in stunning town of Healesville. What a gorgeous spot. Surrounded by wineries and places to walk through gorgeous rainforest, we happily stayed here for 1 week. As you can see, our little man enjoyed the local birds which came to visit each day in the caravan park.

Beautiful Stanley..North West Tassie!

As we start to wind up our 12 month tour of Tassie we spent a wonderful week exploring the magical town of Stanley in Tasmania’s north west. Stanley is famous for “The Nut” which is actually an extinct volcano that now forms the iconic headland.

The town is very historic and has some great options for accommodation. You have either the RV stop near the golf club or the caravan park closer to the town centre. Both are great options.

Seven Mile Beach - The one that's in North West Tasmania!

We have been waiting to get on to a sandy beach and go for a beach run. Located between Smithton & Stanley on the north west coast is a place called Seven Mile Beach which is easily accessible for most vehicles. (Just be mindful there is another Seven Mile beach located down near Hobart if you google it.)

We had this place to ourselves and while the weather was not the best it is always great to hit the beach in the truck.

The Tarkine...North West Tasmania!!

While in North West Tasmania we ventured out and completed the Tarkine tourist drive. Fair to say this drive is a mix of a range of different sites and scenery. There is a lot of regrowth forest coupled with some cracking sites mixed in between. Our highlight was the rugged west coast coastline.

From the famous "Edge of the World" on Tassie’s west coast through to the Trowutta Arch on the way back into Smithton. We personally covered the drive in one day but there were a few of the key sites that were closed on the day. If you have the time its worth a look and you could spend a few days.

Relax at Blackberry Inn…North West Tassie!

As part of our recent adventure into north west Tassie we stopped for a week at the little town of Forest. This town has the most amazing low cost camp spot called Blackberry Inn. The location provides easy access to the major townships of Stanley and Smithton. We used this location as a base to explore the region and we totally enjoyed our time here.

For just $50 you get this beautiful quiet location for a full week. There is a brand new camp kitchen, public toilets and a drinking water point available for all campers. The community tennis court is also available for use and there is also a basketball ring for the big kids. Finally for the little ones in your tribe there is a great little playground for the kids. We can recommend the local store located next door as they have good value burgers and other options. We always like to support the local business owners so drop in and grab some supplies or a bite to eat.

Dip Falls then relax at Blue Hills Honey

If you want an easy day out up in north west Tassie. Treat yourself to a visit out to Dip Falls. These falls have an amazing tessellated rock formation which is really unique. There is a bottom viewing deck which is down a fairly hefty staircase but I promise you...its worth it.

Then head back up the top and take in the falls from the opposite side for a completely different aspect.

Once you have finished at the falls if you make your way back towards Mawbanna (10-15 mins)and make sure you stop at Blue Hills Honey . A brilliant place to stop for big kids and little kids alike. Some amazing blends of honey and terrific team across the whole business.

Our little man loved the bee hive themed playground so we thought why not grab some lunch and sit outside while the little guy had a play.

Smithton Tasmania…Gateway to the Tarkine!

We recently spent some time in Smithton Tasmania as part of our exploration of Tassie’s North West. We used the Tall Timbers RV free camp as a base for a few days while we explored the area. You can stay in this amazing little RV spot for a maximum of 72 hours. Water & dump points are available in the nearby town but the team at Tall Timbers have delivered with this amazing little spot.

Nestled in amongst the creek that flows through the property is a great place to spend a few days. Ducks on the property for the kids and plenty of room for everyone. Bottle'O is also available on site to make things easier for the big kids

Use this spot as a base and explore the Tarkine drive through the remote north west.

Weekend at Burnie...

Well team we found this incredible little free camp located only 5 mins from the centre of town in Burnie, Tasmania.

Located on Tasmania's north coast this is a great little place to stop for a few hours or a few days.

Camping at Cooee Point Reserve is a great option. You do need to obtain a permit from the local council but this is only to register your stay. This can be done online so no messing around. Camping is absolutely free.

Terrific spot for up to 48 hours.
