Strahan - S3.E13

Ernie lands in the rugged North West Coast of Tasmania, a former port featuring Strahan Harbour and Risby Cove. It's one of the most isolated outposts of Australia, but beautiful, with the unspoiled beauty of the region's cold and wet landscape. The region has a haunting convict past, with the British bringing their most hardened criminals to the area's penal colony in the 1800s. With a population of only 600-odd, Ernie meets a steam train driver, explores the Macquarie Harbour with a skipper and visits thousand-year-old Huon Pines with a conservationist.
