The Tarkine: Australia's largest expanse of cool temperate rainforest
In short: Explore the remote northwest of Tasmania to discover a wilderness defined by its isolation. This video captures the Tarkine's untouched river systems and a coastline that receives what is considered the cleanest air on Earth.
The Tarkine, known as Takayna, serves as a vital sanctuary of cool temperate rainforest. It is distinguished by its lack of human impact, preserving river systems and a wild coastline in a state of near-pristine wilderness.
The region is significant for its geographical purity, specifically the high-quality air blowing across its coast. It offers a rare glimpse into Australia's remaining large-scale, undisturbed forest ecosystems.
