Finding the forest

Tahune is in the Huon Valley, about an hour and a half south of Hobart: take the Huon Highway (A6) to Geeveston, then follow the signs along Arve Road for about 30 minutes.

• By car: the road is sealed all the way to the car park. GPS and mobile coverage are limited, so follow the signposts from Geeveston rather than your navigation.
• Without a car: there is no public transport to Tahune; tour operators run day trips from Hobart.
• Before arrival: leave time for the journey and entry checks so you are ready for your booked slot.

Useful stops along the way

Facilities can change through the year. Visitors can usually expect:

• A Visitor Centre with a licensed café and a souvenir and gift shop.
• Wheelchair access to the Visitor Centre and the Huon Pine Walk boardwalk.
• Three walks through the forest, from a 20-minute boardwalk to an hour-long loop over two swinging bridges.
• The Eagle Hang Glider, a 400-metre cable ride, at extra cost on the day.

GPS and mobile coverage are limited, so follow the signs from Geeveston. Bring layers and a raincoat. Ask staff about current arrangements when you arrive.

A visit that works for you

About 106 steps lead up to the start of the Airwalk, and its surface is metal grating; staff can arrange mobility-assisted access on request at the ticket office. The Visitor Centre and the Huon Pine Walk boardwalk are wheelchair accessible.

• Check arrangements for your particular mobility or access needs before travelling.
• If you are bringing a stroller, confirm the current arrangements before arrival.
• Ask Tahune staff for assistance or directions during your visit.

Enjoy the forest thoughtfully

• Keep to the walkways and marked tracks, and supervise children on the Airwalk and the bridges.
• Give wildlife space, and keep your food out of reach of the currawongs.
• Dogs are welcome on a lead.
• Drones are not permitted on the site.
• The site closes on Christmas Day and in hazardous weather.

A little care helps protect the forest and its wildlife for everyone.

Make time for a pause

The Visitor Centre at Tahune has a licensed café, and a souvenir and gift shop. Keep an eye on your food outdoors: currawongs are quick to take it.

• Stop for breakfast, lunch, a hot drink or refreshments nearby.
• Leave room in your plans to sit down and enjoy the setting.
• Check opening hours and menus on the day; food and drinks are purchased separately.

Last tickets are sold at 15:55.

A few details worth planning

• Book ahead: choose the date, time and places you want to visit before making other plans.
• Keep your QR ticket ready: save it on your phone or bring a printed copy, with any proof needed for reduced admission.
• Start in the right place: start at the Visitor Centre and show your ticket to staff to check in.
• Dress for exploring: sturdy shoes, layers, a raincoat and a charged phone make the day easier.
• Leave space to linger: allow at least two hours for the Airwalk, the Huon Pine Walk and the Swinging Bridges Track.
