In a serene alpine woodland setting on the edge of Tasmania's World Heritage Area, Cradle Mountain Chateau is your base for exploration of the wilderness. During the day, enjoy short walks to mountain lakes and ancient forests, climb to ice-carved peaks, cast for a trout, tour by 4WD or on horseback - in the evening, return to the comforts of the Chateau, with its cheerful log fires, fine restaurants and acclaimed Wilderness Gallery, one of the world's most superb collections of nature photography.
