NEWS

The Furneaux Geotrail was completed this year. There is only one other geotrail in Tasmania.

The Geotrail uses a mobile web app to provide information about the landscape. Ten Geotrail visitor sites on Flinders Island were created in 2019, all accessible by car. This year we have added the more remote sites, accessible on foot or virtually.
