This is our SELF-GUIDED TOUR through the diversity of the North-East and its unique temperate rainforests.
This tour takes you inland into rolling, green hills and rainforests - an astonishing contrast to the stunning coast line. Some long ascents make this tour more difficult than our East Coast Tour, but if you are at least moderately trained or have just completed our East coast tour, this should not present a problem for you.

This is our RAPID self-guided tour along Tasmania´s breathtaking East Coast.
The route is identical to our standard East Coast Tour, but your night in Hobart and the "day off" in Bicheno have been taken out to make the tour duration shorter. You will cycle the 'classic' tourist route along Tasmania´s breathtaking East Coast, passing many outstanding empty white beaches in a mild, mostly dry and sunny climate. You will not see our capital Hobart but can still visit the famous Freycinet National Park, when you are really fit or use the small ferry to cross Moulting Lagoon (not always possible). There are some hills between Richmond and Orford, the rest is undulating. Experienced cyclists will find this tour easy, however this will depend on the wind direction on that day.

This is our SELF-GUIDED TOUR through the wilderness of the west coast and highlands.
This goes through very dramatic scenery, much of it in World Heritage listed areas and alpine regions. Due to the remoteness the daily distances here are longer and the terrain is mostly hilly with some long ascents. There is a good chance of bad weather, especially rain. This amazing tour is only suitable for really fit cyclists.
