Mount Field National Park

We did the 3 falls walk on our way to lake saint clair. It is beautiful and very easy access. We see one padiemelon during the wlak. But it wasn't easy to find accomodation around and I would recommend to stay over night if you don't have to.

Love it! A very nice walk with my kids today. We just visited Russell falls and Horsehoe Falls. The views are stunning! It’s worth visiting there💖

Such a beautiful place,walking through the national park and seeing the tall trees as you continue on you take in the beauty of this place,just breathtaking and connecting with nature you forget about everything. On to Horseshoe Falls,just so beautiful and the final falls is Russell Falls,so spectacular I didn't want to leave. Our walk ended at the visitor centre where we had lunch and a look around. Overall a must do while in Hobart.

Visiting second time. Very serene walk along with tall trees, birds chirping and water sounds. Loved it.

Spectacular park. The Alpine walks (Tarn Shelf) are especially breathtaking. The tall trees and waterfall walks are also good. Nice cafe. Helpful campground staff. My only critique is that the camping area is small and crowded (with no online booking system, so it is luck of the draw) and the Day Use area is HUGE and I wonder why they don't extend the camping area more and take advantage of the space.

Enjoyed our 2.5 hr hike of the three falls circuit. Russell Falls and Lady Baron Falls are definitely the best. We recommend doing the hike in an anticlockwise direction. This does mean there are two sections that have stairs to climb (around 400 steps total) but the majority of the hike is sloping downwards. It also means that 20min in you see Russell Falls and shortly after Horseshoe Falls. If you go the clockwise direction, you are walking mostly on an incline and then going down both sets of stairs. Going in an anticlockwise direction…We found the first part of the hike the best as it is really lush rainforest and mostly all undercover. But the end of it is slightly more dry, bush land and more exposed to the sun. If you struggle physically with long hikes, just go to Russell Falls and turn back to return to the Visitor Centre. That is the best part of this hiking trail. The toilets in the Visitor Centre are clean. And there’s heaps of car parks. Definitely worth the 1 hr drive north from Hobart.

We loved this National Park, especially the fact that there were so many walks on offer, from easy half hour to easy 2 hour plus, moderate and more! The easiest walk was the wheelchair and stroller friendly path to Russell Falls. From here, there are about 200 steps up to Horseshoe Falls. The path then connects to the Three Falls Track across to Lady Barron Falls via the Tall Trees Track. The paths had clear signs and were well used. We spotted pademelons, wag tails, yellow crested cockatoos and green parrots along the 2 hour loop walk. The Three Falls Track is considered challenging in the brochure because of some steep sections. TIP: If climbing UP stairs is your preference, then start at Russell Falls, climb UP to Horseshoe Falls and later UP stairs after Lady Barron Falls. If going DOWN stairs suits you best, start by heading to Lady Barron Falls and ending at Russell Falls! The Waterfalls Cafe at the Visitor Centre had great coffee, and the lemon and poppy seed muffin and carrot cake were delicious, and reasonably priced.

2 nights on power at the camp ground, self register after choosing site, machine is touch screen intuitive, issue receipt. Process was easy. Old but clean showers/toilets. Showers require tokens which are issued upon payment from a machine in the laundry. Card charges apply, washing machine and dryers also are screen/app activated, $5 wash $5 for about 45 minutes dryer, it took two cycles to dry one load. Information centre is excellent as is the adjoining cafe. park is central for walks and drives. We drove to the Strathgordon dam, Lake Peddar and Lake Dobson and walked to the waterfalls
