\r\n

When it comes to natural wonders, Australia\u2019s cup really does runneth over.<\/p>\r\n

The country is home to 20 UNESCO World Heritage Sites \u2013 from rainforests and fringing reefs to destinations telling Dreamtime stories and tales of early European settlement \u2013 and hundreds of national parks, dozens of marine sanctuaries, and a lengthy list of pristine parcels of property.<\/p>\r\n

The Great Barrier Reef<\/a> and Ulur<\/span>u are the most famous, but it would be a travel sin to limit sightseeing to the top two with every patch between the Pacific and Indian oceans home to Mother Nature\u2019s most wonderous work.<\/p>\r\n

Check out some of the natural wonders that can be found in each of our states and territories to help you plan your next trip.<\/p>\r\n

\u00a0NATURAL WONDERS TASMANIA<\/h2>\r\n

The Apple Isle \u2013 the picturesque patch of Australia separated from the mainland by the deep blue of Bass Strait \u2013 is home to prized parcels of pristine wilderness, sky-scraping peaks that wear snowy white crowns during winter, and historic hideaways documenting the early days of Van Diemen\u2019s Land more recent European discovery.<\/p>\r\n

Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park<\/a> often tops the register of Tasmania\u2019s top natural wonders and it\u2019s a title that sits comfortably with the serene World Heritage Area boasting world-class hikes that wind around alpine lakes carved by pre-historic glaciers and below dramatic serrated summits.<\/p>\r\n

Freycinet National Park<\/a>, on the state\u2019s east coast, is a more recent addition to the list of Tasmania\u2019s natural must-see sights with the pink granite peaks of the Hazards and the perfect white sand of Wineglass Bay complementing the empty emerald and sapphire coves that define the Freycinet Peninsula.<\/p>\r\n

The Gordon River is the jewel of Tasmania\u2019s west coast with the dark tannin-stained water, which drifts through the heart of the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area, becoming so still it is a mirror perfectly reflecting the towering trees growing along the banks.<\/p>\r\n

AAT Kings\u2019 Perfect Tasmania<\/a> is a 13-day tour that completes a clockwise loop from Hobart to take in Cradle Mountain, the Gordon River and Freycinet National Park as well as visiting the Port Arthur Historic Site on the Tasman Peninsula, Russell Falls and the tranquil Tamar Valley.<\/p>\r\n

\u00a0NATURAL WONDERS VICTORIA<\/h2>\r\n

Victoria is a state that\u2019s heavy with natural wonders, from the snow-capped peaks of the lofty Victorian Alps to the golden sand of the spectacular south coast.<\/p>\r\n

The Great Ocean Road<\/a> \u2013 that scenic stretch of asphalt that winds between surf-side Anglesea and bucolic Allansford \u2013 is famous far and wide thanks to icons like the 12 Apostles, Loch Ard Gorge and Bay of Islands with the Eagle Rock Marine Sanctuary and thundering Johanna Beach adding additional reasons to dwell.<\/p>\r\n

But there are just as many places on the inland side of the road with hidden waterfalls, centuries-old forests and clear mountain streams hiding inside the Cape Otway National Park.<\/p>\r\n

Follow the paths through Melba Gully after dark to see the colonies of glow worms, stroll Maits Rest Rainforest Walk to see ferns thriving in the valleys beneath the beech trees, and hike below the tall California redwoods hiding deep in the Otway Ranges.<\/p>\r\n

The Grampians National Park is a few hours north and home to the most extensive collection of significant Aboriginal rock art paintings and shelters in southern Australia, with this rich Indigenous history and remarkable flora and fauna combining to earn the address heritage listing.<\/p>\r\n

Tastes of Southern Australia<\/a> is an 11 day tour beginning in Sydney which takes in bushranger country at Beechworth and Glenrowan, the flavours of Melbourne\u2019s vibrant foodie scene before travelling along the Great Ocean Road, visiting the quaint seaside towns of Lorne and Apollo Bay.<\/p>\r\n

NATURAL WONDERS NEW SOUTH WALES<\/h2>\r\n

The Blue Mountains is the undisputed champion of New South Wales when it comes to ranking the state\u2019s natural wonders, and it\u2019s the view of the iconic Three Sisters from Echo Point \u2013 past the pinnacles to the rolling landscape covered in the camouflage green of eucalypts \u2013 that prizes this location the crown.<\/p>\r\n

The World Heritage-listed national park isn\u2019t just celebrated for its astonishing scenery with the sprawling swathe of protected property an easy drive west from Sydney displaying significant cultural, Indigenous, botanical and geological value.<\/p>\r\n

AAT Kings\u2019 includes a day-trip visit<\/a> to the Blue Mountains as part of a four-night stay in Sydney with the outing including a stop to savour Jamieson Valley sightseeing and time to ride the scenic railway, cableway or skyway to appreciate the scale of the steep valleys and rising summits.<\/p>\r\n

NATURAL WONDERS CANBERRA<\/p>\r\n

The national capital is famous for human history \u2013 it did rise from sheep paddocks during the early decades of last century \u2013 but, sitting in the shadows of the Brindabella Range at the northern end of the Australian Alps, it also boasts some natural wonder.<\/p>\r\n

Lake Burley Griffin rests at the heart of the perfectly-planned settlement, with some of the city\u2019s most significant structures lining the banks, while the National Arboretum now nurtures more than 44,000 trees from 100 countries growing in 94 curated forests and landscaped gardens across the 250ha hillside site.<\/p>\r\n

Southern Capitals: City Meets Bush<\/a> is one AAT Kings\u2019 outings that visits Canberra with this five-day crossing from Sydney to Melbourne spending a night in the Australian Capital Territory and including an ascent of Mt Ainsley to survey the settlement surrounded by mountains.<\/p>\r\n

NATURAL WONDERS QUEENSLAND<\/h2>\r\n

The Daintree Rainforest and Great Barrier Reef cement Queensland position high up on the list of locations to appreciate world-famous wonders but, while these two attractions should always be high up on every traveller\u2019s bucket list, there\u2019s so much more to the state\u2019s tempting tropical north.<\/p>\r\n

The Atherton Tablelands is the first stop on the drive west towards Gulf Country with the road \u201cup the Gillies Range\u201d one of Australia\u2019s great scenic drives and the gem-like chain of crater lakes perfect for refreshing during steamy Far-North days.<\/p>\r\n

Cobbold Gorge is one of Australia\u2019s true hidden gems with this outback oasis, that hides in the Gulf Country to the south of Georgetown, a jigsaw of cool narrow canyons and rolling sandstone ridges.<\/p>\r\n

Lawn Hill National Park sits to the south of the Gulf of Carpentaria\u2019s southern shore and is another secret spot that lets intrepid travellers stand on remote soil. The Constance Range is an impressive sandstone escarpment, best seen at dawn and dusk when the fields of spinifex cast long shadows on the scorched rock, and Adel Gorge another sanctuary of lush green in kilometres of outback ochre.<\/p>\r\n

AAT Kings\u2019 adventurous Gulf Savanna Wanderer<\/a> departs Cairns to spend nine days surveying the splendid scenery west of the Tropical North Queensland capital with a tour of the Undara Lava Tubes, a sunset Gulf of Carpentaria cruise, and journeys aboard the Gulflander and Savannahlander trains also on the schedule.<\/p>\r\n

NATURAL WONDERS NORTHERN TERRITORY<\/h2>\r\n

Australia\u2019s Northern Territory can comfortably be divided into two sight-seeing segments \u2013 the Red Centre and Top End \u2013 with each boasting a wealth of natural wonders inside the 24 national parks and more than 70 nature reserves, conservation areas and marine sanctuaries.<\/p>\r\n

Kakadu National Park<\/a> is rugged but not remote \u2013 an easy drive from Darwin, with comfortable accommodation and impressive infrastructure \u2013 and caters to those set on seeing cascading waterfalls, lagoons alive with native flora and fauna, and the sun setting on a sunburnt escarpment.<\/p>\r\n

Litchfield National Park<\/a> is a local favourite, and possibly the Territory\u2019s best-kept secret, with this parcel of protected land just an hour from Darwin offering the opportunity to float in rockpools and the ponds below tumbling waterfalls.<\/p>\r\n

Nitmiluk National Park and the string of 13 sandstone canyons that make up Katherine Gorge are always listed with the Top End\u2019s most celebrated natural wonders and best appreciated by foot, kayak, boat or helicopter.<\/p>\r\n

While the colours continue to change during the day, and the hours around noon deposit dramatic shadows on the sheer canyon walls, the most tempting time to visit is during sunrise and sunset when the theatrical blue hues of dawn and dusk consume the landscape.<\/p>\r\n

Further south in Australia\u2019s arid red heart there are two stars of the natural wonders show with Ulur<\/span>u and Kata Tjut<\/span>a demanding the spotlight but needing no introduction.<\/p>\r\n

Kings Canyon is another Central Australian wonder that doesn\u2019t get as much glory as its neighbours but definitely deserves attention, with the challenging 6km Rim Walk<\/a> or shorter 2.6km Kings Creek tramp the best options for exploring.<\/p>\r\n

Outback Safari<\/a> is an AAT Kings\u2019 itinerary that takes in the best of the Territory\u2019s natural wonders with this 11-day expedition from Alice Springs to Darwin visiting Red Centre locations like Ulur<\/span>u, Kata Tjut<\/span>a and Kings Canyon as well as Kakadu and Litchfield national parks, Katherine and Mataranka in the north.<\/p>\r\n

\u00a0NATURAL WONDERS SOUTH AUSTRALIA<\/h2>\r\n

When it comes to rating natural wonders, South Australia<\/a> doesn\u2019t immediately spring to mind. But the state is punching above its weight with the Flinders Ranges, Kangaroo Island and the Fleurieu Peninsula three striking spots to appreciate Mother Nature\u2019s very best work.<\/p>\r\n

The Flinders Ranges \u2013 from Quorn in the south, through Blinman and Beltana in the heart of the region, to Arkaroola in the north \u2013 can only be described as magnificent and, just a five-hour drive from Adelaide, must be considered Australia\u2019s most accessible area of authentic outback.<\/p>\r\n

While Wilpena Pound is the focus for most visitors, with a stroll into the natural bowl an easy way to appreciate the scenery, it\u2019s only one location to take in the geological grandeur of the snaking Elder and Alphabet ranges formed 600 million years ago during the Ediacaran Period.<\/p>\r\n

Those set on surveying the glory of the Flinders Rangers should embark on AAT Kings\u2019 Outback Explorer<\/a> with the 10-day journey from Adelaide to Alice Springs continuing to the Red Centre after crossing the South Australian border.<\/p>\r\n

If coastline and islands call then Great Ocean Road & Kangaroo Island Escape<\/a> is an AAT Kings\u2019 tour that combines the beauty of Victoria\u2019s splendid south-west coast with South Australia\u2019s south-east corner.<\/p>\r\n

The tour dashes across the state border on the second day of this week-long trip and navigates the rolling hills of the Fleurieu Peninsula before boarding the ferry to Kangaroo Island where a guided walk of the Seal Bay Conservation Park waits after seeing Admirals Arch and Remarkable Rocks.<\/p>\r\n
