The team behind Larapinta’s award winning Eco-Comfort camps has launched a new destination for adventure travellers looking for an eco-conscious walking experience in comfort.

World Expeditions new and exclusive Eco-Comfort Camp on Tasmania’s remote and beautiful Flinders Island is the first of its kind in the region and features seven private sleeping tents with a communal recreation and dining platform for hearty meals created from local produce. The private beachfront camp is nestled in amongst trees with views to the ocean, offering guests an unparalleled level of seclusion and privacy.

Like the Larapinta Eco-Comfort Camp, the entire Flinders Island Eco-Comfort Camp is fuelled by solar power, rainwater is collected for camp usage, toilets are compostable and all the semi-permanent structures are packed away during the off season.

Hikers summit the island’s most spectacular peaks of Mt Killiecrankie and Mt Strzelecki under the leadership of two wilderness guides with the eco-comfort camp acting as a nightly base. Flinders Island is known for an array of ecosystems from dunes and lagoons to woodland and granite ridges and sparkling crystal water in which to swim.

Spend days discovering spectacular scenery and abundant wildlife on the crown Island of walking in Tasmania and nights bedded down in semi-permanent safari-style eco-comfort tents.

Guests at the Eco-Comfort Camp will also experience time at Wybalenna to learn of the indigenous history and discover the island’s natural heritage with a visit to the Flinders Island Museum.

“Our Larapinta Eco-Comfort Camp is much loved  (and awarded) by those hiking in the Northern Territory” says Sue Badyari, CEO of World Expeditions.

“We wanted to bring that same level of comfort in a wilderness location to Australia’s island of adventure, Tasmania. Flinders Island’s unique ecosystem, rugged nature and remote location is ideal for the eco-conscious traveller who likes to sleep in a bit of comfort.”

The six day Flinders Island Walking Adventure in Comfort is fully guided and includes five nights in camp, five breakfasts, six lunches and five dinners all lovingly prepared on site with local produce. High quality camping gear is provided and return scenic flights from Bridport are part of the deal from AUD$3195 per person.
