    There are a number of fine mountain huts in Tasmania. If your rambling along the Overland Track you will be certain to be staying in a number of them. That's if crawling about in tents is not your thing. Good advise is to start your walking early in the day, to get the most of the finer weather in general, and lastly to get a place to roll out your sleeping bag.

    Some of the most photogenic and historically important mountain huts in the state can be found at both Dixon's Kingdom, at the Walls of Jerusalem National Park and the old (emergency shelter only) Du Cane Hut, found along the Overland Track, Cradle Mtn - Lake St Claire Nat. Park.

    For shacks these are all privately owned and are found at most of the larger lakes ie: Great Lake, Lake Leake and many coastal communities like Lettes Bay outside Strahan and Cookville on Bruny Island to name a few places. They all, although simple and often iron structures have charm. Have a wander about and meet the locals.
