Trowutta Arch — Attraction in Tasmania

Nestled in the mystical wilderness of northwestern Tasmania, this magical destination is much more than a scenic marvel—it's a portal through time. The awe-inspiring natural arch exudes an energy that resonates deeply, as if it echoes the Earth's primordial song, allowing visitors to connect with the essence of our heritage.

The peaceful 20-minute walk through ancient, moss-covered trees feels like a journey into another realm. Upon reaching the arch, you are greeted by a shimmering, brown-hued lake with green algae, its stillness reflecting the timeless beauty of the surrounding landscape. Climbing the nearby rocks offers a fresh perspective of the area, heightening the sense of wonder.

This is no ordinary place—it’s a site of profound energy, where the air feels charged with life. The arch itself stands as a silent witness to millennia of history, radiating a sense of power and mystery. Many believe this sacred spot amplifies spiritual awareness, making it a must-visit for those seeking a deeper connection with the Earth and its ancient rhythms.

Although the gravel road leading to the site is unpaved, it’s accessible for most vehicles, and the short walk from the car park is manageable for all ages. Along the Tarkin Scenic Drive, this enchanting place offers lush rainforest surroundings, vibrant fungi during autumn, and an atmosphere that feels otherworldly.

Take time to pause and absorb the energy of this magical space. Stand beneath the arch, feel its timeless strength, and explore the cave at its base, which holds secrets waiting to be uncovered. Hug a tree, breathe in the clean, misty air, and let the sound of the Earth soothe your soul.

This is not just a destination—it’s an experience of connection, healing, and discovery. Add it to your journey, and let the magic of this place leave a lasting imprint on your...

So sad that we lost one of best short and easy walks that we could immerse ourselves in the true mother nature....

I would say this place is a must go if you are travelling in western Tassie. The arch is about a 20 minutes peaceful and easy walk on a mostly paved pathway.

At the end of the pathway you are able to slide down to the bottom of the hill and walk pass the arch, which feels like an entirely different world on the other side.

The lake is of a brownish colour due to mineral contents, and it’s covered by green algae. Once you are at the bottom of the hill, you can walk up the rocks on your right, which will give you a different perspective to view the lake.

Please note that the road to get here is not paved, however it is suitable for...
