The Tarkine is the largest tract of unprotected wilderness in Tasmania. It also contains the largest rainforest and one of the greatest concentrations of aboriginal sites found in Australia.

A relic from the ancient supercontinent, Gondwanaland, the Tarkine rainforest is one of the most significant temperate rainforests on earth. It is home to 56 threatened and endangered species, such as the Giant Freshwater Crayfish - the world's largest freshwater invertebrate and the Tasmanian Wedge Tailed Eagle - the largest Eagle in Australia.

The extensive rainforests, beautiful river gorges, buttongrass mountain tops, flowering heathlands and long wild beaches combine to make the Tarkine one of the world's great treasures.

Join with the Tarkine National Coalition as we campaign for preservation of the Tarkine and eventual establishment of the Tarkine World Heritage Area in north-west Tasmania.
