Introducing The Northwest

Show mapClose map

Swept clean by the Roaring Forties winds and washed annually by more than two metres of rain, the magnificent Northwest boasts coastal heaths, wetlands and dense rainforests from Gondwana times. Communities here are either rurally off-the-map or touristy to-the-hilt – there’s not much in between. The further west you get, the less trammelled the landscape becomes. Raging ocean beaches and isolated small communities are all that stand between you and South America. The Northwest is one of Tassie’s gems – add it to your list.
