Your day at a glance:
- We will journey up the east coast of Tasmania to the small town of Triabunna.
- We will then board the Maria Island ferry and cruise across the Mercury Passage to the main settlement of Darlington. This is a non-functional historic town from the convict era / industrial era of Maria Island with lots of fascinating history to discover. This town only has restroom facilities, a ranger station and push bike hire services available, besides that there are no other services or shops.
- After visiting Darlington we will continue on to our day walk to your chosen part of the Island. There are two options available for day walks: North of Darlington, The Fossil Cliffs & Reservoir Tracks. The Fossil Cliffs contains views of the impressive sea cliffs, the reservoir track is a lovely walk through Maria’s lush bushlands. The other option is South of Darlington, which is a walk down to the stunning Painted Cliffs and back via the inland track.
- Maria Island is filled with wildlife freely walking around, you may encounter a Wombat or even a Tassie Devil. This experience will not disappoint for the nature & animal loving enthusiasts and proves to be one of the best experiences we have on offer.
