Nature Walks & Lookouts Nearby
The Huon Valley and surrounding area offer some of southern Tasmania's most rewarding walking. Close to Green Gables you'll find the Tahune AirWalk — a suspended walkway through ancient Huon Pine forest — as well as the Hartz Mountains National Park, popular for alpine day walks with sweeping views across the valley. The Waterfall Bay Trail on the Tasman Peninsula is a short drive for something more dramatic. Closer to home, the Channel Highway corridor offers easy riverside and orchard country walks through every season.
