Short Walks Northern Tasmania - John & Monica Chapman

This guide describes 31 walks that range from 0.5 to 2.5 hours in length in the northern half of Tasmania. Walks range from Scamander on the east coast north to Mt William then across to Launceston and across the northern coast including walks around Mole Creek, Cradle Mountain and across to Smithton and the northern Tarkine area. Most of the walks are easy but display the full range of Tasmania scenery. There are walks to waterfalls, along sandy beaches, buttongrass ridges, coastal cliffs, alpine lakes, gorges, lookouts and a wide variety of forest. This is a companion guide to Short Walks Southern Tasmania along with our book with longer day walks Day Walks Tasmania.
