Northern Tasmania

Reisgids

Then the top of Little Horn peeps up on the horizon, maybe I’m getting close I think.  Within another 20 metres the whole purpose of the excursion becomes apparent.  The vista before me is simply breathtaking.  Twisted Lakes is but a mirror, everything I’d hoped and planned for has come to fruition.
When you come upon something as good as this, it’s overwhelming.  The sheer majesty of the panorama engulfs you, its power makes you feel so humble in its presence, there’s a distinct aura of “something else”, but it’s indefinable.  It’s all my grey matter can do to remind me that I’m here to actually take photos.  You just don’t want to stop looking for fear that it will all go away and you’ll be denied any more pleasure; but it stays as I set up the tripod.  It’s not often I put myself in the picture, but here I feel it’s a must.  Then I can look at it and remember just where I sat and how good it was.
There are many angles to be had here.  Faint trails indicate where other photographers have been, little flattened sections indicative of footfalls.  It takes me around 15 minutes to get what I came for and then I sit down and enjoy breakfast, although “enjoy” seems like a totally inadequate verb in this case, there is a higher plane involved here, one you get to experience so few times in life.
The cloud has started to form more seriously now, as predicted, and it adds a little to the experience.  Changing lens and shifting position constantly I can but hope I’ve got it covered and, even as I’m moving around, the first gentle ripples of the day’s breezes disturb the surface.  Had I been here any later I would have missed it.  You like to think it’s good fortune but reflect on that fact that you’ve planned it for a week, constantly following the weather patterns, in the hope that you’ll get it right and leaving early enough to avoid all the problems that occur later.

Bay of Fires , Tasmania , Australia
Tasmania, also know as the New Zealand of Australia. Strangely enough most people who travel to Australia seem to forget about this beautiful island of Australia.

It took us 5 hours to reach the top. But the view, was mind blowing!
This is a good friend of mine standing on top of the world. 
Sadly enough I can't remember the exact hiking location anymore. But I know it was very close to Deloraine. Anyway, there is a lot of beautiful hiking to be done in Tasmania. If you'll ever travel to Australia. I recommend you to visit Tasmania! #hiking
After 3 hours hiking this spot is a nice place to catch my breath.

Prima accommodatie, ook na late aankomst is het goed en heel prettig geregeld. Parkeren totaal geen probleem. Ligging is heel rustig maar behalve de prachtige golfbaan, is er niets in de directe omgeving, behalve een casino dan.
