2025 Cradle Mountain Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in March)

the amazingly beautiful cradle mountain! so beautiful even during the raining days! definitely a re-boosting hiking and memorial experience for life. immersing into the true nature and have fun with photo shooting, with this scene, cannot have bad photos!! featuring the little water fisherman house, the lake, the mountain, the fog (because of the raining day!), the green and the nature who made it all!!

Dove Lake is a very popular tourists attraction in tasmania located at near cradle mountain, one of tasmania iconic mountains. Dove lake has a hike that is a loop where it is a 2.5 - 3 hours circuit route that takes you around the lake that allows you to take different angle of this calm smooth reflective lake. During the walk around the circuit there are also several view points for you, where it overlooks the lake with the gorgeous breathtaking backdrops of the mountains surrounding the lake. This is an easy hike with some gradual upslope and downslope, nothing too difficult. But if you do not want to walk the entire lake, from the car park, just walk down towards the lake which will only take you less than 10mins and you will be able to have a view of the amazing Dove lake. Do go early, as the carpark gets filled up really fast and tour buses will also start coming in later in the day. #bucketlistreboot #dovelake #tasmania #hiking #mountains #cradlemountain #naturelover #naturalwonders #breathtaking #australia

Getting There - Cradle Mountain National Park Tasmania Australia Attractions - Hiking and tourist centre Hotels - several available nearby Lots of walking track options to meet all fitness levels. We walked around the lake just a shame the cloud were not on our side. The cradle was not visible for most of the hike but the rest of the scenery was stunning. #gooutside #nofilter

Between hiking in the cold at 7am for 2hours and hitchhiking for a 15mins ride - the choice was clear. We woke up at the break of dawn for a quick breakfast and coffee. The car park was empty and only had a couple of campervans parked overnight here. With our bodies still stiff and cold, we started on our hike to Cradle Mountain only to realise that the journey was longer than expected. We made a quick decision to hitch a ride in to the Overland Track of Cradle Mountain instead of continue walking in the cold. Got rejected a few times but didn't give up. We finally succeeded with a kind hearted couple from Queensland who were also intending to hike to the summit of Cradle Mountain. #createwithtrip #naturewonders #tasmania #australia

The journey to Cradle Mountain typically starts from Ronny Creek car park, where there is a registration booth for all visitors to sign in. Take the Overland Track to get to Crater Falls. The bushwalking track is very well maintained. There is a platform which is raised to keep visitors away from the mud and grass. It is even lined with anti slip chains for the cold winter mornings. Platform is quite narrow though, and good for walking in single file only. The terrain is mostly flat with occasional steps, which makes for an easy walk. It took me about 1.5hr to get to Crater Falls. You might spot some cute wombats along the way if you are lucky! #createwithtrip #naturewonders #hike #tasmania #australia

The Cradle Mountain’s snowy heights glimmered under the gentle sunlight. The scene was absorbing, and we took our time. The Palawa Aborigines had 12 seasons probably due to the fact that nature at the Cradle Mountain had an unusually unpredictable temperament. The weather could change in a matter of minutes. As we embarked on the most strenuous part of the trail, the climb became very difficult. We were under time pressure, just about an hour more to go before we must meet the group. It started snowing, and rather heavily too. At every step upward I asked myself, “when is this going to end?” It seemed like we were climbing a never-ending set of steps up. We had no time to lose and both my aunt and I were completely silent for a good forty-five minutes. Both of us knew that we must only focus on climbing. I felt a strange sensation: the snow kept the surroundings very cold, but we were rushing in a pace that kept us too warm inside. To my untrained eye it seemed as if there were only a few kinds of shrubs and bushes along the circuit. They formed a neutral color tone consisting of green, brown and chestnut. The green formation near the ground were called “button grass.” The chestnut littering amidst a pine, nutty green was very soothing to the eye. There did not seem to be a wide variety of growth and vegetation, but the consistency of that evergreen and brown made an impression that lasted way beyond the hike itself. It was winter time, and yet these colors breathed a gentle but firm spirit of life. One could only imagine what spring might look like in this mountainous region. #dovelake #dovelakeciruit #cradlemountain #tasmania #australia #hiking #hikingtrails #australianature #downunder #travel#naturalwonders#trip

Cradle Mountain is one of Tasmania's most iconic natural landmarks, located in the Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park. Climbing Cradle Mountain not only allows you to experience the pristine alpine terrain but also offers breathtaking views of Dove Lake and the surrounding wilderness. --- Summit Route: Cradle Mountain Summit Track Total Length: Approximately 12.8 km (round trip) Walking Time: 6-8 hours (depending on weather and personal fitness) Elevation: 1,545 meters Difficulty: Moderate to Difficult (rock climbing sections in the latter part) Starting Point: Dove Lake Car Park Best Season: December to April (summer and early autumn), winter may have snow and is not suitable for general hikers --- Hiking Process and Features 1. From the Starting Point to Marion’s Lookout - This is one of the most popular hiking routes, starting from either Ronny Creek or Dove Lake. - Some sections are steep but have chains for assistance, suitable for general hikers. - Upon reaching Marion’s Lookout (1,223 meters), you can enjoy stunning views of Dove Lake and the Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park. 2. Crossing the Kitchen Hut & Cradle Cirque - This section is relatively flat, with views of native Tasmanian plants, alpine meadows, and heathlands. - Pass by the Kitchen Hut, a refuge hut for hikers, where you can take a short break. 3. The Final Climb (Rocky Area) - The most challenging part, requiring both hands and feet to climb large boulders, with some steep terrain. - The wind can be strong, so extra caution is needed. 4. Reaching the Summit of Cradle Mountain (1,545 meters) - 360-degree panoramic views, overlooking the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area. - On clear days, you can see Lake St Clair and Barn Bluff in the distance. --- Essential Gear and Precautions Hiking Boots: Sturdy and non-slip boots are essential due to the rocky sections in the latter part. Warm and Waterproof Gear: Tasmanian weather is unpredictable, even in summer, you may encounter strong winds, low temperatures, or rain. Sufficient Water and Food: There are no supply stations along the way, so bring at least 2 liters of water and high-energy food. Maps and Navigation Tools: Mobile signals are unstable, so it's recommended to bring offline maps or GPS devices. Early Start: Start hiking before 8 AM to ensure enough time to return. Check Weather Conditions: If heavy rain or strong winds are forecasted, it's advisable to cancel the summit plan. --- How to Get There? By Car: About 2 hours from Launceston, about 4.5 hours from Hobart. Shuttle Bus: You need to take a shuttle bus from the Cradle Mountain Visitor Centre to enter the national park, as vehicles cannot drive directly to the trailhead. It's highly recommended for those planning to summit to be mindful of the last shuttle bus time. Missing it means you'll have to walk back to the visitor center, which could be a very frustrating experience!

Cradle Mountain is named after the arc formed by its two peaks that resembles an English cradle. There are glacier relics, tropical rainforests, brown-red lakes, thick meadows, steep stone peaks, and even the road up the mountain still retains the appearance of being just developed a hundred years ago. It is almost impossible to reach the top without the help of iron cables. Along the way, we occasionally encountered wombats, giant kangaroos, and Tasmanian devils with square poop. Hiking in the pristine, wild and silent Cradle Mountain may be an unforgettable memory of a lifetime.
