About the region

Nestled in the North-West corner of Tasmania, Australia’s island state is the greatest expanse of temperate rainforest, and the second largest in the world, the Tarkine is an intriguing experience. Unlike many places in the world the Tarkine remains as a hidden treasure and a forgotten wilderness. This expanse of uninterrupted 477,000 hectares of Tarkine wilderness holds ancient relics both plants and animals dating back millennia. Not only is it home to the largest temperate rainforest in Australia and second in the world, but is alive with unique creatures and habitats not found anywhere else.

The Tarkine is not just one wilderness, it provides an archipelago of experiences. See its vast forests of myrtle, leatherwood and pine trees and engage with them as living links to Gondwanaland that it shared with Patagonia, Papua-New Guinea and New Zealand.

The Tarkine speaks for itself and when you visit, whether experiencing many of the Tarkine forest walks, self guided drives, river cruises or visiting the amazing natural sights you will know why it is becoming known as a high quality ecotourism destination.
