NATURE & WILDLIFE

The "wildlife without cages" Tasmanian Devil Unzoo is shaping the way zoos can evolve in the 21st century.

“When you visit you will discover lots of very special animals of the Tasmanian bush, especially our famous devils. But what is different now is that most of our creatures are wild, not captive. It is a welcome change from a traditional zoo.”
GREAT SHORT WALK
Cape Hauy Track
4 hours return, 9.4km return. Grade 3.
One of Tasmania’s 60 Great Short Walks.
-
Cape Hauy Track is located on the Tasman Peninsula, 2h from the event site, a must do short-walk if you’re exploring the Tasman Peninsula area!
-
A stunning there and back walk to some awe-inspiring cliffs. The track, part of the Three Capes Track, first undulates through woodlands and heath containing an abundance of wildflowers. It then drops down a steep set of mostly stone steps, before ascending again towards the cape. Cape Hauy juts out into the restless ocean, with views on both sides. The cape itself has spectacular dolerite columns that plunge directly into the sea. Keep an eye out for seabirds, eagles and even passing whales: camera and binoculars recommended.
