Experience the beauty of Tasmania’s highlands with a stay
at Derwent Bridge Chalets and Studios, just five kilometres
from Lake St Clair, at the southern end of the world-renowned
Overland Track in the Cradle Mountain – Lake St Clair National
Park. Derwent Bridge is about two hours and a half drive
from Hobart, Strahan, and Launceston and about three hours
from Cradle Mountain and Devonport.
Enjoy a range of superb wilderness bush walks or go trout
fishing. You can also take the walkers ferry on Lake St Clair
to see its beauty or bring your bicycle for a ride or canoe
for a paddle. Visit ‘The Wall in the Wilderness’, on the
eastern edge of Derwent Bridge, to marvel at the sculptures
and carvings in Huon Pine which illustrate the rich history
of the highlands and its pioneering people.
Each of the 3 ½ star chalets and 3 ½ star studios is fully
self-contained, quiet, private and designed for your comfort
and convenience. Two of the chalets have romantic spas just
for couples, three chalets are suited to families or groups,
and one is a charming retreat for two.
The almost new studios are perfect for one or two persons
only and are great value with their facilities and comfort.
All the chalets and studios have television with satellite
reception, and CD players while all the chalets have full
laundry facilities. The studios share a coin operated laundry.
All guests are offered complimentary ground coffee for their
plunger, port & chocolate mints for the evenings and a
newspaper delivered to the door early each morning. A selection
of fine wines and beers are available in the reception office
for the convenience of guests.
Guests can self-cater in their chalet or studio (limited
cooking facilities only), or enjoy a barbecue in the large
BBQ shelter. If dining-out is your choice try the hearty
meals at the Hotel just 600 m away or the café-restaurant
at Lake St Clair (limited dining during winter). The nearby
Hungry Wombat Café cooks great hot breakfasts and a range
of takeaway food and meals during the day.
