Walk through treetops, relax in a thermal pool and explore a 40-million-year-old cave system—this full-day adventure from Hobart includes all entrance fees for a hassle-free, super fun day out in Tasmania’s far south!

We head through the lush Huon Valley to Tahune Adventures, where forest walks await. Brave the Airwalk, a suspended path 40m above ground, or cross the thrilling Swinging Bridges over the Huon River. Prefer something gentler? Stroll riverside among ancient Huon Pines.

Then it’s off to Hastings Caves for a peaceful lunch, a dip in the 28°C thermal pool, and the Hot Springs Nature Trail. Afterwards, join a Parks & Wildlife guide for an unforgettable tour of Newdegate Cave, a dramatic dolerite cavern filled with stalactites and flowstone.

On the way back, we stop at roadside stalls for fresh local produce.

Great day trip! We did the Tahune airwalk & swinging bridge walk. Both are easy walks. Took a quick dip in the thermal swimming pool (but only 30min at this spot + changing in and out of swimwear was maybe a bit on the very short side...) hastings cave was another highlight. Wonderful caveguide. Very enthusuastic. Very easy accesible cave and truly gem-packed with wonders. Our guide matt was a very knowledgable and kind guy! Thanks for having us, we had a marvellous day and id recommend this trip to everyone!
Great tour!

Very good tour of the backcountry of Tasmania. Highlight was the Tahun (raised trek) Airwalk. Cave was interesting also. Thermo swimming pool was nice but not very warm. I recommend tour.
Great for short trips to Hobart

It is a long day with a lot of walking so be prepared but do it all. Do all the walks and take in all that these beautiful areas have to offer. Heather was brilliant with her local knowledge too.
100% must do

Lots of stairs but very enjoyable. The tour guide was so knowledgeable about all things. The caves were so beautiful.
Only enough time to do the Airwalk.

We only had enough time to do the airwalk as the drive is quite long - but fun - and it will depend on how quick you do the walks. To get to the airwalk you drive along a logging road - which is paved - through some impressive trees, which is a good start to the adventure. The actual airwalk is fun, but it looks like the forest is still regenerating from a fire in 2019 and in a few years will be more impressive. Going out on the cantilever section gave an impressive view! Take the walk to the swinging bridges, but they do bounce a bit! All in all a good trip.

Too bad the bus is so uncomfortable and there is no audio guide. The Australian guide was very explanatory but very difficult for Europeans to understand
