Departing from Hobart, you'll swiftly descend into the picturesque Huon Valley, embarking on a scenic two-hour drive through its winding roads and past lush fruit orchards. Upon reaching Dover, the stunning Port Esperance Bay will captivate you with its reputation as one of Tasmania's most exquisite natural harbours.

Walk among the treetops on the Tahune airwalk, a sturdy steel canopy offering a bird's-eye view of the forest floor, 50 meters below. Immerse yourself in the forest's tranquillity on a leisurely stroll and summon your courage to traverse a swinging bridge over a river. As the day winds down, relax on your return journey to Hobart, arriving around 5:30 pm.
