All About
Enchanted Walk
Highlights
The Enchanted Walk is a must-do bucket list short-walk located near the Interpretive Centre at Cradle Mountain in Tasmania's north-west. The walk starts near the bridge crossing Pencil Pine Creek and meanders through magical, mossy forest, along a cascading creek. Keep an eye out for colourful fungi, especially during the coldest months.
You might also see pademelons and wombats on the edges of the forest (please don't feed or touch any animals—for their safety and yours). A tunnel that mimics a wombat burrow has been built along the track, and is a magnet for children.
