About Discovery Parks – Cradle Mountain

Discovery Parks – Cradle Mountain caters to a diverse range of travellers with various accommodations, from Premium Mountain Cabins to powered campsites. The recently redeveloped Premium Mountain Cabins feature underfloor heating, gas-log fireplaces, Smeg appliances, and floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the surrounding rainforest. Each cabin includes a private balcony and a deluxe welcome hamper stocked with local Tasmanian treats. For budget-conscious travellers, the park offers Economy Dorms with shared amenities, providing a comfortable and social atmosphere. Facilities on-site include a communal camp kitchen, BBQ areas, laundry, a retail shop, and a minimart for essentials. The park’s eco-conscious redevelopment preserved the natural environment, allowing vegetation to regrow naturally around the site.
