Tasmania is the perfect place for a road trip, whether you’re towing a caravan, setting up a camper, or looking for a cosy cabin to settle into for a few nights. With its mix of breathtaking coastlines, peaceful rainforests, and charming country towns, there’s something special about hitting the open road here.
The best part? There are plenty of holiday parks across the state offering both caravan sites and cabins, so you can tailor your trip to suit your style.
One of the best parts about travelling in Tasmania is the flexibility, you can spend nights under the stars at a caravan site, then treat yourself to a fully-equipped cabin when you feel like it. Many parks offer both options, so you can mix things up depending on the weather, your energy levels, or just how much you feel like ‘roughing it.’
Tasmania’s cabins aren’t just a convenient place to stay, they’re often in some of the most beautiful locations in the state. If you’re looking for a peaceful retreat, Discovery Parks Cradle Mountain puts you right in the heart of some of Tasmania’s most spectacular wilderness, while BIG4 Strahan Holiday Retreat offers a relaxing escape on the west coast.
For a waterfront stay, Captain Cook Holiday Park on Bruny Island is a fantastic pick, letting you wake up to the sound of waves and spot local wildlife right outside your door. If you’re after a northern escape, Penguin Caravan Park provides stunning coastal views, while Launceston Holiday Park, Legana is ideal for those wanting a city base with a touch of nature.
If you’re heading east, Scamander Sanctuary Holiday Park offers a mix of glamping, cabins, and campsites right near the beach, perfect for travellers looking to unwind by the ocean.
For those bringing a van, Tasmania has no shortage of top-quality caravan parks. BIG4 Ulverstone Holiday Park is a favourite for its spacious sites and excellent facilities, making it a great stop on a north-west coast road trip. Beach Retreat Tourist Park in Wynyard offers easy access to stunning beaches and is perfect for a laid-back coastal escape.
If you’re exploring the south, Discovery Parks Hobart provides a convenient base for checking out the city while still enjoying the comfort of a holiday park. Further south, NRMA Port Arthur Holiday Park is ideal for history lovers, with its close proximity to the famous Port Arthur Historic Site.
For a true road trip adventure, Triabunna Cabin & Caravan Park is a great spot to stay before heading over to Maria Island, while East Beach Tourist Park in Low Head offers prime access to pristine beaches and scenic lighthouse views.
One of the biggest perks of road-tripping in Tasmania is that everything is relatively close together, but it never feels like you’re rushing. You can be in the mountains in the morning, by a white sand beach for lunch, and finishing the day in a cosy town with a great pub meal, all without spending hours and hours behind the wheel. Plus, Tassie’s roads are well set up for caravan travel, with plenty of stops to rest, refuel, and soak in the scenery.
Whether you’re rolling in with the caravan or booking a comfy cabin, there’s no shortage of incredible places to stay in Tasmania. Check out caravanningtas.com.au for a full list of parks, or get in touch at [email protected] to find the best options for your next adventure!
