Cradle Mountain Explorer

The raw and ragged terrain is an amazing sight

Explore Tasmania's mesmerising Central Highlands without getting your hiking boots dirty with our 90-minute Cradle Mountain Explorer flight. 

Our journey begins as we depart from Launceston, ascending into the skies towards the Great Western Tiers. Here we’ll climb to over 1500 meters in altitude, granting you a bird's-eye view of the majestic landscapes below. Look out across the vast expanse of the Great Lake, a shimmering jewel nestled amidst the wilderness. As we venture further, keep your eyes peeled for the iconic Cradle Mountain, a sight that is synonymous with Tasmania and all its natural wonders. From the vantage point of our helicopter, you’ll be able to capture the perfect shot of this breathtaking landmark. There’s also an intricate network of hydroelectric dams to view alongside the towering valleys that shape the rugged terrain.

For those who have ventured on foot along the trails of Cradle Mountain, this is your chance to get your bearings and spot some trig points, connecting your memories of exploration with the magnificent aerial perspective. Descending from the mountain heights, our journey leads us to Lake Barrington, and if luck is on your side you may even witness some rowing action taking place on the tranquil waters below. 

As we make our way back to Launceston past the imposing face of Mt Roland you’ll be able to take a moment to reflect on the awe-inspiring sights witnessed during this unforgettable adventure.
