The broad and tranquil waters of the Huon River are born in the great south-west wilderness and flow to the D'Entrecasteaux Channel near Bruny Island. A river of many moods; calm and tranquil in its broad lower reaches and fast with rapids suitable for kayaking further inland. The Huon Highway follows the river from Huonville to Franklin and even from the car the visitor can appreciate the beauty of this pristine river. Upper reaches can be accessed through Geeveston via the Tahune Forest Reserve Road. From here, a walking track follows the bank right into the Southwest National Park.
