NEWS

The Furneaux Geotrail  was completed in 2021.The project was initiated by the Furneaux Museum and carried out in partnership with Tasmania Parks & Wildlife, Mineral Resources Tasmania, Flinders Council, and volunteers.

Ten Geotrail visitor sites, accessible by car, were created on Flinders Island in 2010. The  more remote sites, accessible on foot or virtually, have been added in 2021

There is only one other geotrail in Tasmania.

The Furneaux Geotrail is particularly innovative as it provides information about the landscape by means of a mobile web app. Visitors use their smartphones to access the app via a QR code.
