Set in the Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park, at the heart of the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area, the iconic Cradle Mountain is a place of exceptional natural beauty. Lake St Clair is one of the largest lakes in Tasmania and offers great views of Cradle Mountain’s recognizable ridges. Rugged snow-topped mountains are surrounded by waterfalls, moss-covered trees, grass meadows, and rock pools as far as the eye can see. Cradle Valley is also home to several fascinating historical Aboriginal sites that can be explored via numerous hiking tracks. The mountains are inhabited by numerous wildlife species, including platypus, echidna, Tasmanian devils, and quolls.
