Tasmania: Cradle Mountain, Dove Lake, Marion's Lookout

Probably the most recognizable Tasmanian landmark, Cradle Mountain sits on the northern gateway to the Overland Track linking Cradle Mountain to Lake St. Clair.

The Dove Lake loop track, which takes about 2 hours to complete, is suitable for everyone. It starts from the eastern side of Dove Lake and passes through beautiful Ballroom Forest, which comprises a canopy of tall trees with a carpet of lush moss underfoot.

Marion's Lookout is a moderate hike that rewards those who conquer it with fantastic panorama views of Dove Lake and a close up of Cradle Mountain.
