Embark on an extraordinary journey with the exclusive Southwest Wilderness Experience. You will immerse yourself in the raw beauty of one of the world's most majestic landscapes.

From the moment you take off on the scenic flight to Bathurst Harbour, you will be mesmerised by the breathtaking views of Tasmania's untamed wilderness. Marvel at the rugged coastlines, pristine waterways, and remote landscapes that define this remarkable region.

Upon arrival, delve into the heart of the Southwest National Park as you explore Bathurst Harbour on a scenic boat trip. Led by experienced wilderness guides, you have the opportunity to witness the untouched beauty of this remote wilderness, a privilege few get to experience.

Throughout the journey, knowledgeable pilots and guides share their passion and insights, providing you with a deeper understanding of this unique environment. With over thirty years of experience, Par Avion ensures that every aspect of the adventure is expertly curated for an unforgettable experience.

Your day is all inclusive – you are only required to bring a camera, a jacket, and a hat. Everything else is arranged, including return scenic flights between Hobart and Bathurst Harbour aerodrome and a guided boat tour around the waterways. Enjoy great coffee and refreshments, and a gourmet lunch featuring delicious Tasmanian food and wine.

A comfortable boat ride from Melaleuca takes you through the winding waterways of the inlet, out into the magnificence of Bathurst Harbour. There’s a great selection of short walks too – including visits to local historic and wildlife sites, scenic lookouts, and nature walks. All walks are easy and most are on flat ground or raised boardwalks.

The amazing scenic views begin right away on the scenic flight, crossing Hobart and the River Derwent, down through the Channel region past Bruny Island, then turning west to track along the rugged south coast and into Bathurst Harbour Aerodrome at Melaleuca.

The scenery on the return flight to Hobart is even more captivating, passing over the spectacular Arthur Range, including Federation Peak. You take in Mount Picton and The Huon Valley, then return to Hobart via Mount Wellington for a birds-eye view of the beautiful capital of Tasmania before landing back at Cambridge.
