West Coast Wilderness Railway
West Coast Wilderness Railway travels through one of the world's last pristine wilderness areas crossing 40 bridges, wild rivers and climbs over 200 metres on a fascinating 35 kilometre journey from Strahan to Queenstown.
Gordon River Cruises
This magnificent cruise features not only the stunning views of waterfalls and mirrored reflections of the Gordon River but Hells Gate where the harbour opens to the ocean and the notorious Sarah Island. You are also able to step ashore and experience the wonder of the Heritage Landing and walk into the green silence of the rainforest where the trees are up to 2000 years old.
Strahan Food & Wine
Strahan has always been a working fishing port - today, the town's lobster boats and long-liners still tie up at the wharf to unload their catch. Fresh West Coast lobster and fish are a treat. To accompany this beautiful seafood, a Tasmanian Chardonnay, Riesling or Sauvignon Blanc is the perfect choice.
Cove Gallery
The Cove Gallery is a contemporary art gallery which is housed within a converted, century-old sawmill workshop and the exposed-beam framework compliments an eclectic collection of work by Tasmanian artists. Works include paintings, photography, jewellery, ceramics and glass.
Eric Thomas Gallery Museum
The development of Queenstown and the West Coast are featured in more than 900 photographs displayed in 23 rooms of this museum. There are also items of household equipment and personal effects, old documents, coins, cameras, early theatre projectors and antique mantel clocks.
Hogarth Falls
The Hogarth Falls track is located in the Peoples Park. This easy, relaxed walk runs along an almost level track and features water flowing though it.
Teepookana Huon Pine Experience
