What to expect
Your driver collects you and heads towards Mount Field, where you'll explore walking tracks at your own pace among ferns and towering conifers. Waterfalls appear at several points along the trails—some modest, others dramatic. The park's elevation means weather can shift quickly, so expect cool mornings and potential mist around the falls. On the return leg, you'll spend time at Bonorong Sanctuary meeting rescued and captive-bred animals. Staff there explain conservation efforts and animal behaviour. The full day involves steady driving between locations and moderate walking on maintained tracks.
Good to know
Bring layers and sturdy walking shoes; weather changes rapidly at altitude. Lunch isn't included, so pack provisions or eat beforehand. Book three days ahead for vehicle availability. Suitable for all fitness levels, though some tracks involve gradual inclines.
