The airwalk provides a birds-eye view of the southern forests, the local mountain range and the Tasmanian World Heritage Area. Tahune is just over an hours drive from Hartzview.
Visitors "walk the high wire", suspended up to 45 metres in the air on steel towers barely visible from the ground, with the first stage more than half a kilometre long.
It meanders through the treetops in rainforest at the confluence of two mighty rivers -the Huon and the Picton and one section extends over the meeting of the rivers to create a sense of being suspended above it. |
