COASTAL DETOUR

Motorists travelling along the north-west of Tasmania are well served by the National

Highway. Central Coast, however, is fortunate to have retained a small section of ‘old

highway’. Discover this scenic coastal detour which hugs the headlands and sandy

shores from Ulverstone through to Howth.

Ulverstone, with the Leven River at its centre, is Tasmania’s largest town. A

popular summer destination, it is best known for beautiful memorial parklands, great

beaches, a relaxed lifestyle and free parking! For many locals and visitors, it offers an

ideal setting for a picnic or barbecue next to the river or main beach.

A good place to begin your coastal tour is at the Zigzag Garden walkway and lookout.

The base of the walkway starts in Maud Street. Enjoy a leisurely climb surrounded by

beautiful, award-winning gardens, and at the top take in a panoramic view of

Ulverstone and Bass Strait. Or for a less strenuous alternative, drive to the lookout via

Upper Maud Street.

Turning onto Penguin Road, head west to find the first landmark of this scenic drive,

the Three Sisters - Goat Island Nature Reserve. A small offshore island, Goat

Island is accessible at low tide (via West Ulverstone Beach) – but take care not to get

stranded. It offers many magical hours of fossicking, with shallow caves amongst the

rock, and abundant bird and marine life. Throw a line into the ‘fish trap’, or search for

traces of the rail line which carried rock from the island in the early 1900s. Not far

away can be seen a cluster of small islands known as the Three Sisters which are

sanctuaries to a variety of bird life.

Continue along Penguin Road with its rocky headlands and secluded coves. Take your

time, as the road is narrow and winding. It’s a lovely drive, enhanced by viewing

stations along the way offering uninterrupted outlooks of the coastline and Bass Strait.

The next stop is the town of Penguin, named after the occupants of the nearby

rookeries. Greeting visitors along its eastern entrance are the Perry-Ling Gardens.

A mass of colour in spring, the gardens follow the road and rail route into town for

approximately one kilometre.

Penguin is very much a seaside town, with its main street adjacent to the beach. It’s a

popular destination with visitors who are attracted by the beautiful parks, foreshore, old

buildings and cafés, and the busy Sunday market.

And it’s also here that you’ll find The Big Penguin, one of the most photographed

landmarks in Tasmania. The Ferro cement structure stands a proud 3m tall on the

esplanade where it was erected in 1975 to commemorate the town’s centenary.

Heading west on the final leg of the tour, turn right at the traffic-lights and continue on

to Preservation Bay, home of the Penguin Surf Life Saving Club and a popular spot

for surfing, fishing and swimming, and then Sulphur Creek with its lovely stretch of

new and our coastal detour concludes.

WILDERNESS, CANYONS AND CAVES

For those who like to relax by getting back to nature, Central Coast has some

outstanding natural attractions.

Explore the Gunns Plains Cave located on Gunns Plains Road about 20 minutes

from Ulverstone (south on B17/via Preston Road). One of the best examples of its type

in Tasmania, the cave is home to some of the largest limestone shawl formations in the

Southern Hemisphere and also features an underground stream and sparkling glow-worm

display. Tours are conducted daily at 10am, 11am, 12noon, 1.30pm, 2.30pm and 3.30pm.

Further south, along Loongana Road (on C128), is the Leven Canyon, a

spectacular 250m-deep ravine worn over tens of thousands of years by rains and the

Leven River which flows at its base. It is estimated that between 45,000 and 70,000

kilolitres of water roars through the canyon every day.

From a well-equipped picnic area, follow the short rainforest walk to a cliff-face viewing

platform and marvel at the breathtaking scenery. To also view the dramatic cliff

formations from their base, drive one kilometre from the reserve on the Loongana

Road, then follow the walking track to the canyon floor.

An eco-escape awaits visitors to Mountain Valley Wilderness Holidays.

Located at Loongana about 45km from Ulverstone and at the base of Black Bluff, the

area comprises a 61ha private wildlife, forest and karst reserve. Through guided

bushwalks, individually tailored, discover the natural wonders of the lost valley, a

pristine wilderness of ancient forests, waterfalls and caves. Secluded accommodation is

provided in the form of cosy, comfortable log cabins, with meals included.

Near the coast, forming a backdrop to the town of Penguin, the Dial Range offers a

Mecca of walking experiences. This chain of mountains and valleys was given its name

because the silhouette of one of its summits, the Gnomon, resembles an ancient sun-

dial. With access via Ironcliffe Road, the Range has more than 50km of trail, providing

In addition to being a popular location for rafting or boating during summer, the

Leven River also offers a great fishing experience. Ultimate Fishing & Outdoors

at 80 Reibey Street, Ulverstone can supply anglers with fishing tackle and bait. (Note.

Fishing in Tasmania’s inland waters requires a current licence which can be purchased

from Service Tasmania, or Ultimate Fishing & Outdoors.)

In town, the break wall on the eastern side of the Leven River estuary is a popular

fishing spot. On an incoming tide wrasse, cod, couta and salmon can be caught. A

ramp and jetty are available on the western shore for those who have access to a boat.

Safety regulations apply when boating on Tasmanian waters, so contact Marine & Safety

Tasmania for information, and as the weather can change quickly, check forecasts with

the Bureau of Meteorology. Or simply visit the website www.fishonline.tas.gov.au for

your complete guide to fishing in Tasmania.

A short drive east of Ulverstone (via Forth Road), is the village of Forth and the Forth

River. A significant waterway on the north-west coast, the river is the home of white-

water canoeing and is a well-known destination for fishing (along Wilmot Road).

For a top golfing experience, visit the Ulverstone Golf Club located at Lobster

Creek Road (via South Road). Rated in the top 100 courses in Australia, the Club has

an 18-hole par-72 championship course and plays host too many state and national

competitions. One of the most picturesque sporting venues in the state, it’s also a

challenging course, with plenty of trees and undulating fairways to provide an

unyielding test of the golfer’s ability. Open daily, a greens fee applies and golf clubs are

available for hire.

The Penguin Golf Course is a public course located at Dial Road. It’s bunker-free,

but watch out for the many creeks that run through it! The 9-hole par-71 course

features the par 3 120m 7th/16th hole which is virtually surrounded by water. The

picturesque green is in the middle of a lake and has the Dial Range as a backdrop. A

daily fee applies, or takes advantage of a 5-week holiday package.

Or try your luck at Target Golf driving range at Forth. It’s just a short drive east of

Ulverstone (via Forth Road) and located 2km along the Wilmot Road (look for the turn-

off at the Forth Village Store). Practice your golf and win prizes for hitting targets. It’s

fun for everyone, from beginners to advanced players. Open weekends from 10am and

Monday-Wednesday-Friday from noon. Group bookings also offered outside these

hours.

JOURNEY THROUGH HISTORY

The first European settlement of Central Coast commenced in the 1840s. Thick

coastal scrub, dense forests and no roads meant the early pioneer’s life was grim. Paling

splitters worked the area for the easily accessible market of the growing village of

Melbourne across Bass Strait. Sawmills followed, and as timber was removed, farms

became established. The rich basalt soil proved ideal for cropping, and today

agriculture is the principal contributor to the area’s economy.

Step back in time to experience this bygone era at the Ulverstone History Museum

located at 50 Main Street. View the general store, the blacksmith & wheelwright, school

house, railway station and overseer’s cottage, all carefully re-created and brimming with

old artefacts. Or with a bit of information and time, you might be able to trace your

family’s history amongst the extensive photographic library and archives. Open daily

from 1.30pm to 4.30pm.

The early settlers in the town of Penguin were also involved in the lucrative ‘paling’

trade. As well, Penguin briefly worked silver and iron mines, and in the boom years

of the ‘gold rush’, a wharf was kept very busy, providing a focal point for the

surrounding community.

Visit the Penguin Visitor Information Centre, next to the post office in Main

Road, to pick up the brochure ‘Discover Penguin on Foot’. A short walk around this

charming seaside town takes in historic sites dating as far back as the 1870s, as well as

some beautiful old churches and commercial buildings.

The recently restored Penguin Railway Station is now the home of the Penguin

History Group. The Station is open to the public every Wednesday from 10am to

12.30pm (and at other times by appointment) and visitors can view old photos,

cemetery records and family histories. Group members also welcome the opportunity

to conduct personal tours of local sites - call 6437 2712 or 6437 2570.

Collect a ‘Discover Ulverstone on Foot’ brochure from the Ulverstone History

Museum, or take a stroll through Ulverstone’s beautiful war-memorial parklands

located along the banks of the Leven River.

If you’ve an hour to spare, do the ‘Stories of Ulverstone’ walk? Six story boards

located in and near Reibey Street give some fascinating snippets on the history of

Ulverstone. The first story board can be found at the top end of the street at the

podium opposite the Shrine of Remembrance clock-tower and gives an account of the

Shrine’s construction. The second story board is on the wall of Elders VJ Woodhouse

Real Estate, located on the southern side of Reibey Street in its middle block, and

explains the naming of local streets. The third story board is just an intersection away

on the wall of Furner’s Hotel. Here you’ll discover a good yarn or two about ‘Shires the

Snake Charmer’ and ‘Money Flowing in the Gutters’. Continue down the bottom block

and around the corner into Kings Parade. Midway along the Parade is a crossing

leading to the Boer War Memorial overlooking Queen’s Gardens. Follow the pathway

down the Gardens and across into Anzac Park. From here enjoy a pleasant stroll by the

river, under the bridge and along to the wharf where you’ll see Pedro’s ‘The Restaurant’

and the location for the fourth story board. It bears the history of the Ulverstone Port

and recounts the time there was a ‘Whale in the Leven’. Retrace your steps back to

Reibey Street, crossing the street at the first pedestrian crossing, to continue this time

on its northern side to Apex Park and the fifth story board. The board introduces the

Park and its many features. For the sixth and final story board, continue up to the

middle block to the Ulverstone Newsagency where outside its door you can admire

some wonderful photographs of Reibey Street from the early 1900s. All in all, this walk

makes for a very interesting journey through history.
