Follow the signposted Huon Trail on a tour that takes in the Hastings Caves and Thermal Pool, the treetops attraction, Tahune AirWalk, and the area's forest heritage, showcased at the Geeveston Forest & Heritage Centre. This is a journey into a soft blue-green landscape, rich fertile valleys, winding waterways, old growth forests, mighty rivers and the Southwest and Hartz Mountain National Parks. If you continue south past Dover and Southport to Cockle Creek, you arrive at the southernmost settlement in Australia. The names of the first French explorers adorn headlands, islands and estuaries, while roadside stalls sell wonderful apples, berry and stone fruits in season, and vineyards and producers of fine foods open their doors for sampling of cheeses, mushrooms, wines and other palate-pleasers.
