Cradle Mountain
One of Tasmania's most popular attractions is the Cradle
Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park, placed on the World Heritage
list in 1982. Landscapes include ancient rainforest and alpine
heath lands, interspersed with button grass and stands of deciduous
beech trees. Trails winding through forests of King Billy pines
around the mountain offer superb day treks, and the 50 miles (82km)
trek from Cradle Mountain in the north to Lake St Clair in the
south is Australia's most famous bushwalk. The Park is equipped
with mountain huts that offer accommodation for long guided treks,
and Cradle Mountain Lodge offers log cabins in a tranquil setting.
Lake St Clair, a narrow 10-mile (15km) long waterway in the south
of the park, is Australia's deepest natural freshwater lake.

bureaux de change exchange most foreign currencies. Travellers
cheques are also welcome everywhere, but banks take a small
commission and it is better to take cheques in major currencies
(e.g. US dollars or Euros) to avoid additional charges. Credit
cards are widely accepted and ATMs are freely available throughout
the country. Banking hours are generally 9.30am to 4pm Monday to
Thursday, and 9.30am to 5pm on Friday, but some banks offer
extended hours and some are open on Saturday mornings.
