Cradle Mountain Honeymoon, Tasmania

If wild natural beauty gets your romantic juices flowing, then consider the magical highland romance and stunning honeymoon setting that only the Cradle Mountain - Lake St Clair World Heritage National Park can offer.

With its vast wilderness area, fresh clean air, mountain peaks, forests, rivers, lakes, waterfalls, unspoilt bush land and abundant wildlife, the jagged contours of Cradle Mountain epitomise the feel of a wild landscape.

Icy streams cascade out of rugged mountains, stands of ancient pines stand mirrored in the still waters of glacial lakes and a wealth of wildlife ensure there is always something to captivate the romantic in you.

Things to do and see

Choose from a selection of mountain walks with spectacular views of Lake Dove and the Cradle Mountains, go horseback riding or glide across the calm surface of Lake Dove in a canoe.

Accommodation

After a day exploring the region’s breathtaking natural beauty of ancient rainforest and alpine heathlands, choose a range of boutique-style lodges, luxury resorts and comfortable cottages. In winter, when the area is transformed into a white wonderland, sample the best of Tassie’s gourmet food and wine while you snuggle closer to your partner in front of a roaring open fire.

Best time to visit Cradle Mountain?

Any time. The peak period at Cradle Mountain is between September and May. In early May the Nothafagus, a deciduous beech found only in Tasmania, blankets the slopes of the mountain in a spectacular splash of autumn colours.
