Following the wild coastline of Bass Strait is an opportunity to fill up on northern Tasmania’s incredible array of delicious offerings, with plenty of detours to distract all the senses along the way.
Perhaps it's because it has some of the cleanest air in the world but a trip around Tasmania's northern coast sure works up an appetite. Which is just as well, because this stretch bordered by the Bass Straight produces some outstanding culinary options, with some of the most fertile farms and pasture in Australia and passionate culinary folk ready to make the most of it. In between mouthfuls, you'll be treated to beaches and mountains on the east side of the Tamar River, an abundance of wildlife on its west side, ocean views will propel your journey across the fertile food bowl of the central north, and in the north west, Australia's largest cool-climate rainforest will clear the lungs. Here's a tasty sample of what to expect on the Northern Forage's self-drive journey, where you can pick and choose an itinerary for every taste.
