Tessellated Pavement State Reserve Tours and Activities

Here's a worthwhile short hike for those looking for one in Tasmania. As water pools, and then evaporates, sea salt causes the rock to flake in the middle leaving the joints raised. Nearby is a section where the complete opposite occurs. There, the joints are eroded leaving the middle section raised looking like loaves of bread. #TakeaHike #reflections

Tessellated pavements formed from fractures of one big rock stone. Very fascinating :)
Unusual rock formation on Tasmania well worth visiting. However, despite it being summer it was more of a UK summer's day!

8.4/10 Very Good! (263 reviews)
Kevin is a fabulous host. Sitting around the cafe table in the morning with the other guests and Kevin and his breakfast was a highlight. The room is a very good size. It had everything we needed. Yes its old snd quite imperfect, but has charm. We enjoyed our stay. Try the Japanse Restraunt just around the corner, unbelievable good value.

Communication is on par. Received up to date information. Had everything needed plus more in the kitchen. Very clean place. Only thing missing was a coffee machine. Only had instant coffee which is unfortunate.
