Cradle Mountain

Monday, May 25


The Lemonthyme property is marketed as a retreat in the wilderness- it lies about 40 minutes from Cradle Mountain-Lake St. Clair National Park and the owners have cut multiple beautiful bush trails for guests to enjoy, I believe so that once you arrive there is no need to leave...

This morning we walked along some of the shorter routes at Lemonthyme and then headed to Cradle Mountain.  We had lakes and devils to see!

Our cabin

Big Tree Trail

Big Tree indeed!

Good place for a picnic

Cradle Mountain Dove Lake

Panorama of the Dove Lake Circuit
we treked the 6K around the lake!

But not before enjoying some hot chocolate for energy!


Note Nash & I on the walkway- Ross had already moved ahead

Our first view of a wombat in the wild!

The endangered carnivorous marsupial- the Tasmanian Devil
Doesn't he look cute?

We went to the Devils @Cradle after dark feeding...
photos do not do justice...it is the noise that is so haunting...
