- ⛴️ Explore Strahan Tasmania ~ Things to do in and around Strahan
Strahan is a lovely village on the North West Coast of Tasmania, nestled along the banks of Macquarie Harbour. It is 226 kilometres from Devonport and 300 kilometres from Hobart. Strahan is also the gateway to the World Heritage-listed Franklin-Gordon Wild Rivers National Park.

When we visited Strahan, we explored the Village and the Wharf, went on a Gordon River Cruise, wandered to Hogarth’s Falls, enjoyed The Ship That Never Was Play and took a ride on the Heritage Railway.
Strahan has beautiful heritage buildings, several cafes and restaurants and is a very popular tourist destination.
Two boats cruise along the Gordon River, and we were booked on the Spirit of the Wild. We departed from the Strahan Wharf at 8:30 and headed to Hell Gates, where Macquarie Harbour and the Southern Ocean meet.

Then, we cruised along the Gordon River, enjoying the reflections to Heritage Landing. At Heritage Landing, we took a short boardwalk through the temperate rainforests and admired the native flora.
Back on board the boat, we enjoyed a buffet lunch and more beautiful views of the Gordon River on the way to Sarah Island. At Sarah Island, you can take a guided tour and hear the tales of convicts who lived in this dreaded penal colony.
After the cruise, we saw the very entertaining play “The Ship That Never Was”. This interactive play tells the dramatic and hilarious true story of the Great Escape from Sarah Island. It’s Australia’s longest-running show, and you can see it at the Richard Davey Amphitheatre near the Visitor Centre. Click here for more details.
The walk to Hogarth Falls starts in People’s Park in Strahan. It’s an easy 2.4-kilometre return walk along Botanical Creek through stunning rainforests with informative signs along the way. At the viewing area, you can see Hogarth Falls, a lovely 15-metre waterfall cascading over the rocks.
From the Regatta Point Station in Strahan, you can ride on the West Coast Wilderness Railway’s heritage Drewry diesel train. This trip takes you deep into the rainforest with interesting stories from the tour guides about how the railway was built.
