塔斯曼國家公園位於澳洲塔斯馬尼亞島的東邊,距離塔斯馬尼亞島首府哈伯特港東方56公里.這裡沿著塔斯曼半島海岸有三個出名的岬角Cape Pillar, Cape Hauy, Cape Raoul.其中Cape Pillar 和外海塔斯曼島的沿岸峭壁有高300米的綠輝岩石壁和石柱,高聳的綠輝岩峭壁綿延整個半島,是世界最高的海岸綠輝岩峭壁之一.
這裡有一條登山步道,連接這三個出名的岬角,一路沿著海岸峭壁走,可以欣賞壯觀的斷堐景色,全程需背大包走6天5夜,晚上住在山屋.因為Jane不愛住山屋,所以我們選擇開車到三個岬角的停車場再走登山步道去欣賞這些斷堐.但是Cape Pillar 沒有車道可到, 所以我們選了一天搭船到Cape Pillar遊海岸和塔斯曼島.從海上看300米高的峭壁,又有另一種震撼.
因為塔斯馬尼亞地處偏遠,野生動物仍然相當多,所以搭船同時還可以欣賞海裡的野生動物.這個國家公園因高聳的峭壁和豐富的生態被列為1001世界自然奇觀,是遊塔斯馬尼亞島不可錯過的一個國家公園.
Tasman National Park is located in eastern
Tasmania, Australia, 56 kilometers east of Hobart. At 300 meters asl, the columnar dolerite cliffs at Cape Pillar and Tasman Island are among the highest in the world. Dolerite is a rare rock type on mainland Australia. Land formations accessible by road include the Blowhole (a hole at the inland end of a sea cave), Devils Kitchen (a rock hole) and Waterfall Bay. Dolerite formations which are more easily viewed from the ocean include Cathedral Rock, Totem Pole, Candlestick, and Tasmans Arch.
The Three Capes Track is a proposed 68 km, 5 night/6 days, hut based, one-way walk encompassing the three capes in the Tasman National Park: Cape Hauy, Cape Pillar and Cape Raoul.
