Cradle Mountain Fishery and Camping

Camp and fish just a stonesthrow from one of Tasmania's most stunning natural landscapes, Cradle Mountain. Here you'll find nature at its best, just 10 minutes drive from the Cradle Mountain Visitors centre, the perfect base for discovering this magical area. 

Our campsites are on scenic, levelled areas overlooking the large dam and bushland, with grassed areas ideal for tents and camper-vans, and a portaloo a short walk away. The block is a natural timber and grassland block, with devils, quolls and wombats also residing here. We have one powered site available, and multiple unpowered sites. 

There is a lovely walking track around the dams periphery. Feed fish from the edge, spot platypus frolicking about, and keep your eye out for Peacocks wandering the property too. Whilst you are welcome to bring your dog with you, please ensure they don't harass the wildlife.

Williamsford Rainforest Retreat: Basecamp for Montezuma Falls

The Property
Escape to a ¼-acre slice of West Coast history. This block is located in the "ghost town" of Williamsford, now a serene sanctuary being reclaimed by the lush Tasmanian wilderness. Nestled in the misty foothills of Mt Read, you’ll be camping among giant tree ferns and ancient myrtle trees in one of the most atmospheric landscapes in Tasmania.

The Ultimate Waterfall Access
Skip the crowded car parks! You are just a 15-minute walk from the trailhead of the world-famous Montezuma Falls. Follow the historic tramway route to Tasmania’s highest single-drop waterfall (104 m) and cross the iconic suspension bridge.

Mining History at Your Doorstep
Step back in time to the days of the Hercules Mine. The area is scattered with relics of the North East Dundas Tramway and the incredible haulage systems that once defined this rugged mountain terrain.

Guest Requirements & Access

Vehicle Access: The site is easily accessible for campers, caravans, and RVs. Whether you are in a small van or towing a larger rig, you can reach this rainforest hideaway without trouble.
