Wow! What a surprise. Corinna is a small village locate upon the Pieman River about 50kms from Zeehan on Tasmania's West Coast. It is only accessable by a dirt road and you need to catch a barge across the river to get there from the Zeehan side. The first thing you see when you arrive is the dark black waters of the river. These waters reflect the majesty of the surrounding area making carrying a camera a must. The town itself is charming. No bitumen roads. Just a general store which doubles as the accomodation and cruise booking office. The cabins are beautiful and blend with the environment which surrounding them.
The cruise is just magical it winds down the river for over an hour and proceeds through to the Pieman heads on the West Coast. From there you can stroll along the beach before heading back to the boat for the return journey. Unspoilt bushland dotted with Huon Pines and myrtle make the cruise an unforgettable experience.
I would recommend a trip to Corinna even though it is a little off the beaten track. It is well worth it.
