A full on day with abseils, jumps, slides and a zipline. Big Cheese is a highlight - a 30m high waterfall we abseil half of, before slipping off the end of the rope and sliding the rest.

You need previous abseil experience for this one. Even with abseil experience, it is definitely a good idea to do Dove Canyon before this one.

A three day pack rafting through a stunning gorge in the Tassie wilds. Packrafting is fast becoming a popular way of exploring the wilderness in Tasmania. These small, light weight inflatable boats offer the perfect combination of stability, performance and durability.

The trip begins in Launceston where we pick you up in our bus. From here we drive for a bit over an hour to the Mersey River. Here we will inflate the packrafts, pack them, have a delicious lunch and then get on the water.

The first 10km of this trip is nice and easy, with gentle grade 1 rapids, and provides an excellent opportunity to learn how to steer the boats. Guides will teach you about paddling technique, and the skills you will need in the gorge the following day. We make camp on night one right at the head of the gorge, with spectacular views of the cliffs.

Day two is the most intensive from a paddling point of view. We spend the whole day in the massive Alum Cliffs gorge, with grade two rapids and some that get into the grade 3 range. We camp in the guts of the gorge on night two.

Day three sees some more gorge paddling, including passing 'The Chasm' - a tight constriction in the river and one of the scenic highlights of the trip. We then emerge from the gorge and have more easy paddling to the take out, where we are met by the bus and drive back to Launceston.

Inclusions: Transfers from Launceston, all meals from lunch on day one to lunch on day three, most gear (you bring your own sleeping bag and mat and personal camp gear) and two guides.

Join us for a three hour tour kayaking on the iconic Dove Lake in kayaks hand-built from King Billy pine. 

The view of Cradle Mountain with Dove Lake in the foreground is one of the most iconic images of the Australian Wilderness and this tour provides a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in that vista.

We meet at our boat shed, next to the Dove Lake viewing shelter, where your guide will give you all the gear you need for the tour. We then wheel the kayaks to the lake's edge and begin the paddle.

The kayaks you will be paddling have been lovingly hand-crafted over hundreds of hours from King Billy pine - a very special timber prized by boat builders and only found in Tasmania. It is also a very rare and highly protected timber. Our kayaks are built from King Billy harvested in the 1960s, from a forest that had been burnt by a bushfire.
