Tasmania is a mountainous island south of the mainland where around twenty percent of the land is protected as World Heritage wilderness. Cradle Mountain, the Overland Track and Freycinet's Wineglass Bay carry the walking; Hobart carries the food, the convict history at Port Arthur and the Mona museum. Distances are short but roads are slow.
