Gunns Plains Caves

This is a hosted stay through Hipcamp, below is the information provided by the Host regarding their offering. Rivers Edge is located on 24 acres of forest on the banks of the Leven River in Gunns Plains, Tasmania. We are in our own little valley surrounded by tall forests. Preston Creek flows all year through our property and meets the large Leven River where your campsite is situated. Perfect for trout fishing, platypus watching, bird watching or catching the sun setting through the trees on the river bend. There are even the endangered black freshwater crayfish here, but don't catch them or it's a $10,000 fine!  Only 20 kilometres from the nearest town, Ulverstone which has everything you require. The road is close to the campsite with easy access to find the property. No toilet facilities at the site. Sat TV is good and limited mobile reception. Telstra works best we've found. River access over a rocky, uneven embankment as it's a natural, untouched environment, just as we and the native animals like it. Campfires ONLY PERMITTED when fire restrictions aren't in place. Please check "My Trips" (in your profile) for directions once confirmed.

Wing's Wildlife Park is Tasmania's only wildlife park with accommodation on site. Situated in Gunns Plains on the banks of the Leven River, just 23 km south of Ulverstone, in the beautiful north-west of Tasmania. Your choices for accommodation include accommodation units, caravan park and camping grounds. The accommodation units are available in queen, family and bunk rooms, and include linen and access to shared kitchen/bathroom amenities. Overnight guests pay a once-only entry fee to the Wildlife Park which will cover the duration of your stay, guests staying in queen or family rooms receive a discounted entry. You can walk through the grounds to see Australian native animals - Tasmanian devils, koala, wombats, kangaroos, reptiles, trout, as well as exotic animals including monkeys, meerkats, camels and American bison. The majority of native animals at Wing's Wildlife Park have been rescued following injury and are released into their natural habitat when rehabilitated. Those unable to be released stay in our care for the remainder of their lives. Wing's Wildlife Park also has a cafe available for lunch, snacks, drinks and ice-creams. You can browse in our gift shop and find that treasured souvenir. Gunns Plains Caves and Preston Falls are nearby.

This is a hosted stay through Hipcamp, below is the information provided by the Host regarding their offering. This very private and peaceful 20-acre property has stunning views and a big dam, great for swimming and canoeing - but you will need to share it with platypus! A family-friendly environment, which is close to many attractions including the Gunns Plains Caves, Preston Waterfalls, Levan Canyon, Cradle Mountain (1hr), bush-walking, bird watching and wildlife parks. There is also a variety of fresh fruit growing on the property in the summer season, from the end of December until April. Blackberries, plums, apples, nashi pears, raspberries and cherries! We'd love you to sample them! The site features a clean grassy paddock with good access, a huge shady tree and spring water from a tap nearby. Pets are welcome, provided they're kept on leads. You'll need to have your own amenities/camping toilet. No amenities here. Campfires are permitted when restrictions aren't in place. We can supply firewood. Canoes can be supplied for a paddle in the dam also. Bring your horse if you wish, for a donation only.
