Pure Tasmania is home to the most exciting holiday destinations in Tasmania. On this site you can find holiday adventure and accommodation packages designed to suit every holiday budget.

Strahan village on the west of Tasmania is one of the world’s last great temperate wilderness regions. The great Gordon River flows through Strahans’ ancient World Heritage listed rainforests and Strahans’ quartzite peaks pierce the sky.

High on the Central Highlands of Cradle Mountain are the sculptured landscapes of Ice Age glaciations and Cradle Mountain walking tracks that ascend through alpine gardens to craggy summits. Cradle Mountain Chateau provides luxury accommodation in complete contrast to the wild environment.

Freycinet, east side of Tasmania is a paradise of sunny white beaches, coastal forests teeming with wildlife and the soft forms of pink granite mountains rising from the sea. Our unique Freycinet Lodge, the only accommodation within the national park, completes the ultimate Freycinet holiday experience.

Pure Tasmania brings the best of these three regions Strahan, Cradle Mountain and Freycinet. Combines them with the best accommodation Tasmania has to offer, giving you the holiday gateway to discover and experience this island’s nature and wildlife, history and heritage, food and wine.
