Such an amazing experience our Tour guide Zoe was sensational. Her passion and knowledge was so detailed and she was so enthusiastic about her job. We learnt so much and had a great day. Thank you Zoe you made our tour a whole lot more special.
5Amazing experience
Amazing. We booked this an hour before it ran due to the snowy weather and changed plans. We absolutely loved watching the feeding. Our guide was informative and knowledgeable. We loved the Tassie devils. They have so much personality. The venue was well kept and spacious.
5Great Tassie Devil experience
This is a fantastic way to see the Tasmanian Devils and get a lot of information about them, and also the Quolls. This is the second time I've visited, 4 years ago i did the night feeding tour, both are great.
5Very interesting
Our tour guide was really knowledgeable and shared some really interesting information about the wildlife native to Tasmania. The highlight of course was watching the devils devour their meal!

About Cradle Mountain-Lake St. Clair National Park
Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park is Tasmania's alpine heartland, with jagged dolerite peaks, glacial lakes and the Overland Track.
The park lies in the heart of the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area, about 160 km north-west of Hobart in a straight line. At its northern end, Cradle Mountain rises to 1,545 metres above Dove Lake, where a path and boardwalk circle the water beneath the serrated peaks. At the southern end, Lake St Clair, the deepest freshwater lake in Australia, fills a glacial trough.
