Pieman River Magical Mystery Tour

The Pieman River snakes its way through Tasmania’s Tarkine region and any visit to Corinna includes a fair amount of time on the river.

Lovers Falls, Tarkine

Lovers Falls is one of the highlights of a trip to Corinna.

The path in to the falls is very high...Read More

Tarkine Fungi: Corinna and surrounds

Of the many reasons to visit and photograph the Tarkine fungi is one of the more compelling and interesting at this time of year. The rainforest in autumn is damp and cool and a myriad of colourful forms appear on the soaking wet logs, mossy tree trunks and sponge-like forest floor. On a recent visit...Read More

It is a unique wilderness of rugged coastlines; deep, dark rainforest and beautiful mountain vistas.
