Along the way, soak up the magnificent scenery as you pass through lush Tasmanian rainforest and Huon Pine forests, look out for native wildlife such as platypus, as you cross the Garfield River and Sailor Jack Creek.
Back on dry land, get ready for the second part of your adventure – a ride on the famous West Coast Wilderness Railway. After being driven to the remote Dubbil Barril railway station, hop aboard a traditional steam train and admire the spectacular scenery as you climb through the rugged gorge.
