Located off Tasmania's east coast and accessible only by ferry, Maria Island contains the most intact example of a convict probation station in Australia. The stone Commissariat Store, 150 metres from the jetty, is the island's oldest building and is now a visitor centre with displays and information about the island.
The island offers excellent walking and cycling journeys. Short walks explore the buildings and ruins of Darlington - a ghost town with a convict and industrial past. The Reservoir Circuit is sheltered from the coastal winds and provides a glimpse of Maria Island's wildlife and history as you wander through open woodlands into a tall eucalypt forest.
A former limestone quarry at the Fossil Cliffs provides a fascinating close-up look at the many ancient creatures immortalised as fossils in the rocks. The Painted Cliffs at Hopground Beach are beautifully patterned sandstone shaped by the mineral-rich water and wind.

Hey everyone, hope you enjoy the last installment of the Tasmania Road Trip series. Let me know if you have any questions about the Island and i'll do my best to help/point you in the right direction. This is the last video i'll be posting on The Path Less Traveled and the next video that I post will be the start of a new channel. Cheers!

Climb in the morning when the wind is less. Today we tried to climb it and I pushed for the top but as I was then by myself it was very very windy. Didn’t feel safe being solo with the last few boulders to climb over

[@ronaldowilliams4778]

Love this

[@bieberkaki]

Yay great vid. I was booked to spend a couple of days at cradle mountain 1 week out from Covid shutdown of borders. Hope I can get there later in the year. Looks amazing. I have done some hiking at freycinet nd it was beautiful highly recommend spending time there

[@itsryanwilkes]

Thanks! Aw damn, sorry to hear that. Would definitely love to go back and check out Freycinet and of the more remote south west parts of the island. Thanks for watching!

Beautiful video. Hubby and I were supposed to be traveling to the US next year to hike the PCT, with COVID, that's really looking like it will have to be postponed another year, so we are considering traveling around our home country here in Aus instead (once we can get out of lockdown!). We live in Melbourne but have never actually been to Tassie (crazy!) This has definitely moved it up on my list of spots to go hiking and camping. Your photography is just stunning - you've gained a new sub from me :)

[@itsryanwilkes]

Thanks a lot Tracy! Glad you liked the video =)

[@pankajbhuyan3670]

What video editor do you use? You guys are doing nice job.

[@itsryanwilkes]

Thank you! I use adobe premiere and after effects.

[@Serbinator_Dominator]

How much was total trip?!

[@itsryanwilkes]

Can't quite remember but we cut down on expenses by finding good airbnb deals!
