About Gordon River
Located roughly 300 kms from Hobart, there are plenty of things to do in Strahan, from adventure activities to enjoying fresh seafood, exploring the dark yet rich history and meeting the native wildlife! Experience the absolute best of the region on a wilderness cruise, where breathtaking scenery of lush forests, tranquil waters, and rolling rainforest-clad hills unfolds before your eyes.
Just as iconic is the steam train, which ventures through the west coast wilderness. The rail route allows you to experience the rugged, yet splendid, terrain of the region from the comfort of a train. You can also discover a scenic waterfall within walking distance from Strahan Harbour, check out the ‘Iron Blow Lookout’ during the epic 99-bends drive from Queenstown, get a surge of adrenaline with white-water rafting on the King River or even take the quad for a spin on the ‘Henty Dunes’.
There are just so many great things to do in Strahan, and you don’t wanna miss it. If visiting Tasmania is on the cards and you’re planning to venture past Hobart, this town is a must!

Why Gordon River Is Nature's Mirror
When you see the Gordon River, this question is sure to roll out of your mouth, “Did I walk into a storybook?” You can replace the question with “Is this a dream?” “Will I meet forest fairies or talking animals here?”.

To Humans With Love, A Huon Pine
I stand here, firmly rooted in the soggy bank of the Gordon River. You've kindly given me the name "Huon Pine," though I find it rather funny, for you see, I do not belong to the ‘pine family’ at all.
