The Waldheim Alpine Spa at Peppers Cradle Mountain Lodge is acclaimed as one of Australia's most spectacular wilderness spas, overlooking the surrounding rugged mountains and ancient forests of the Tasmanian wilderness. Its signature therapies mirror the balanced beauty of Cradle Mountain. The spa experience is enhanced by a towering presence of the King Billy pines and fresh mountain streams running through the wilderness.
If you’re a natural born wanderer and want to explore at your own pace, there are multiple self-guided walking tracks that all boast scenic rainforest vistas and awe inspiring waterfalls.
For an easy and steady stroll along the banks of the Pencil Pine River, The Enchanted Stroll whirls through mossy myrtle rain forests and occasionally provides glimpses of animals in their natural habitats.
For a more advanced hike, The Waterfalls Walk that continues through to the challenging terrain of the Dove Canyon Track rewards with views of cascading waterfalls and the striking junction of the Pencil Pine River and Dove River.
Alternatively, if you’re an adventure seeker looking for an all-day affair with the great outdoors, the three hour walk to Crater Lake offers a view of a hidden glacial lake that’s hugged by 200 meter cliffs. For the same walking time with degrees of steep climbs, Marions Lookout shines bright on a clear day, displaying exceptional sights of Cradle Mountain and Dove Lake.
