The Tarkine Walk Wilderness Experience is a four day guided adventure through one of Tasmania’s most remote and untouched landscapes. This pack free journey blends physical exploration with cultural insight and natural immersion, taking in the rich diversity of the Tarkine’s ancient rainforests, wild coastlines and mountain peaks.
Your journey begins with a private cruise along the Pieman River, setting the tone for the days ahead. This peaceful waterway winds through lush forest and delivers you to the trailhead with views and stories that introduce the Tarkine’s ecological and cultural significance. From here, each walk reveals another side of the landscape, from towering myrtles and moss covered understory to windswept beaches and dramatic rocky escarpments. Along the way, keep an eye out for native birds and wildlife including the elusive Tasmanian Devil.
Each night is spent at Corinna Wilderness Retreat in private cottages, providing warmth and comfort in the heart of the wilderness. Meals are served in the lodge’s restaurant, showcasing Tasmanian produce and wines in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. Flexible walking options ensure this experience is accessible and enjoyable for all levels of fitness.
This walk also invites guests to participate in a small conservation initiative, supporting the long term protection of this rare environment. More than a hike, this is a journey into one of the last wild places on Earth. It offers not only remarkable beauty and adventure, but a renewed sense of connection to nature and an appreciation for what must be preserved.
