Visiting Montezuma Falls in the jungle

Date:
03.11.2023
Characteristic:
Walk
Duration:
2:30h
Distance:
9.5km

After our very nice hike up to Cradle Mountain on the day before, we headed further towards the west of Tasmania, driving (mostly) in southwestern direction. After first driving through large Eucalyptus forests, we then arrived in an impressive rain forest / jungle. Our main plan for the day, besides driving towards the west coast of Tasmania, was to do a hike into the jungle at Montezuma Falls.

The trail to Montezuma Falls comes with an interesting bit of history, actually. It follows the route of an early-day railway that pioneers had built into the jungle to help with some mining activity in this area. Even though the topography of this area is definitely challenging (up >>>

Mersey Bluff in Devonport

Date:
01.11.2023
Characteristic:
Walk
Duration:
1:00h
Distance:
1.5km

Devonport had already welcomed us nicely and we decided to give it one more chance to shine! :-) Instead of heading out of town immediately, we first drove to the north of Devonport, where we thought to see the Mersey Bluff Lighthouse. Mersey Bluff and the beach right next to it did not disappoint us -- in fact, this area is really nice and clearly worth a short visit! :-) You can even shower yourself after swimming in the Bass Strait next to Mersey Bluff! Really nice! :-) Selected photos are available as Google photo album . See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway .

After the whole night at the ferry from Geelong to Devonport, we wished to first get some fresh air (before driving on).
