Tasmania Photo Tour with Adam Monk & Paul Hoelen

Join Paul Hoelen and Adam Monk on a nine-day photography experience exploring and capturing the wonders of the North West corner of Tasmania. One of the last great, true wilderness regions of the world, this region of Tasmania, and especially the Tarkine, is an exquisite example of temperate rainforest, windswept coastline and snow-capped mountains – a true wonderland for landscape photography.

The tour begins and ends in Launceston, with a total group of only eight. Currently, four places remain. Some of the highlights of this trip include: The rich Aboriginal history, red lichens and deep blue waters of Rocky Cape NP, the galleries and history of Stanley with a shot at some aerial imagery of its nearby islands and waterways, the wild, rugged and windswept Tarkine coast, with its huge swells and incredible geological features, the ancient Tolkien-like rainforests of the world heritage-calibre Tarkine, a mirror-perfect rainforest cruise on the remote Pieman River on the historical Huon pine Arcadia for a day on otherwise inaccessible coast, topped off with a visit to the largest wilderness gallery in the southern hemisphere, and the many moods and majesty of Cradle Mountain National Park.
