Morning
Begin your day with a visit to Love Lucy Boots in Westbury: the perfect breakfast stop to experience the best of local hospitality and fuel your body for the day ahead.
Meander on down to Deloraine after breakfast and stop by Great Western Tiers Visitor Centre for the friendliest local advice and insight. While you're there, take in Yarns Artwork in Silk—handmade by 300 community members and awarded the TripAdvisor Travellers Choice Award in 2024, this large-scale textile attraction is not to be missed.
You may be full after a delicious breakfast, but take in the next stop and trust us, you'll thank us later. Deloraine Delight put together the most delicious hampers catering to those adventurers who enjoy making a picnic part of a wilderness walk experience. Call ahead and have them cater a hamper to your needs.
Make your way to Pine Lake for your first walk of the day. Consisting of a boardwalk across alpine landscape of ancient pencil pines you will trek towards a perched lake. Pencil pines are often seen around the shores of highland lakes and tarns, creating the unique ambience of these beautiful areas of Tasmania (30 min return).
Afternoon
Now that you've carved a path through Pine Lake, take the time to find a grassy knoll and crack open the picnic hamper that's been perfectly packed for such a fine occasion. Indulge in some of Tasmania's finest artisan goodies and graze on the local landscape.
It's time to walk off all that local produce, and Liffey Falls Walk is the best place to do that. There are two tracks to choose from; the walk from the top car park, which has picnic facilities, offers a shorter, well-made walking track, and the track from the lower car park, where there are minimal facilities, is longer and not as well formed. With many lookouts along the way, this is a gorgeous spot to immerse yourself in Tasmania’s natural beauty.
Stay
There are plenty of beautiful accommodation options nearby for you to indulge in. Hibiki Haus, Mountain Blue Guest Accommodation, Falls River Luxury Accommodation, or Quamby Corner Caravan Park are all a short drive from Liffey Falls, or you can stay within the State Reserve and camp. This Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area site has excellent facilities, including shelters, information boards, and picnic and barbecue facilities, and provides the opportunity to slow down and soak in the clean air and stunning views that Liffey Falls offers all year round.
