    The Keeper, Pru, was amazing, provided lots of information and was happy to answer any questions. The devils and quolls are clearly well looked after

  • 5Time well spent

    Great tour on a cold and damp early Sept day. The devels were out and vocal before the tour start and were even more active once the guide entered their enclosure. The same was true for the quolls. The guide was enthusiastic, knowledge, and clearly enjoyed being there. The tour even ran 15 minutes long because of all the questions and detailed answers. It was very enjoyable and interesting to learn about their attempts to save the Devils.

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.
