Discovery Holiday Parks - Cradle Mountain

Discovery Holiday Parks – Cradle Mountain (formerly Cosy Cabins Cradle Mountain) on the boundary of the Cradle Mountain National Park in Tasmania’s Western Wilderness is just over an hour from Burnie, Latrobe and Deloraine.  This park offers the sanctuary of this stunning region, with all the conveniences of Sheffield less than one hour away.   With other Discovery Holiday Parks located in the nearby coastal towns of Devonport and Strahan, both under 2 hours away, this is the ideal touring holiday region.

Cradle Mountain is the start of the famous Overland Track.  Covering 161,000 hectares, the national park offers a range of guided and non-guided walks for all fitness levels, including the popular 6km Dove Lake Circuit and Marion’s Lookout Walk. Dove Lake Canoe Tours (seasonal) with experienced guides provides all the necessary instruction to enjoy this beautiful glacial lake from a modern double canoe.  Horseback trail rides and helicopter flights are available outside the park boundary with Devils@Cradle offering guided day and night tours of their resident Tasmanian Devil population.

Just over an hour away, the nearby Mole Creek Karst National Park is home to the famous Marakoopa and King Solomon Caves with their stunning display of stalactites, stalagmites, and glow-worms.
