Welcome to Bakers Walking Co.
Step off the grid onto our private Tasmanian luxury bush estate — twice the size of Monaco — home to almost every species native to the island and threaded with 22 km of private tracks that lead to hidden micro-environments.
Enjoy guided day walks or book a three-day luxury retreat for friends or a small company: gourmet Tassie food, hot saunas and open-air baths, premium accommodation and wildlife spotting after dark.
We run every trip with experienced guides and strict safety protocols on our fenced, private property, so you can explore Tasmania’s wild beauty with confidence — all the wonder, none of the risk you’d face in remote, unmanaged backcountry.
Explore a private Tasmanian bush estate twice the size of Monaco — 22 km of tracks, almost every native species on site, and curated micro-environments including saunas and open-air baths.
Choose a luxury 3-day retreat for friends or small companies, or join a guided day walk. Our experienced guides and strict safety systems mean you get true wilderness immersion — without the danger of unmanaged backcountry.
Optional pre-arrival
Arrive early to unwind at a nearby boutique B&B, enjoy a relaxed welcome and a short briefing so you’re ready for the next day’s adventure.
Day 1 — Arrival & ease in
We collect you and bring you straight to the estate for a gentle coastal walk, a long gourmet lunch and time in the sauna and open-air baths. As night falls, hear local stories by the fire and join an optional night-vision wildlife spot.
Day 2 — Estate Highlights
A full day on private tracks through beaches, woodlands and hidden lagoons with curated wildlife stops, a farm-fresh picnic and optional expert add-ons (naturalist, photography or chef’s tasting). Evening stargazing and another guided night-vision outing.
Day 3 — Sunrise & departure
Wake for a short sunrise walk and restorative brunch, share final reflections with your guide, then we transfer you to Devonport or the airport — leaving clearer, calmer and reconnected.
Where you're going
Our property is a privately owned, off-grid bush estate of 1,137 acres that has been left largely un-cleared. Linked by over 22 km of private walking tracks, the landscape moves from coastal dunes to sheltered bays, woodland and quiet lagoons — all on one property. Because access is controlled, small groups can move through a range of habitats in a single day without the crowds or disturbance found at public parks. View more
Why private, uncrowded nature trips deliver more — science & social proof
Research shows time in nature improves mood, reduces stress markers and restores focus — and those benefits are larger when sites are quiet and groups are small. Bakers Walking Co. intentionally runs private or micro-group walks to maximise those restorative gains (reduce rumination, lower cortisol, improve sleep) while giving guests space for reflection, better decision-making and stronger social connection.
Crowded
Popular Destinations (e.g., Cradle Mountain)
Mood: still improves, but gains are smaller when trails are busy.
Rumination: partial reduction — conversations and noise blunt the effect.
Stress markers: modest drops in heart rate/cortisol compared with quiet visits.
Social uplift: higher immediate sociability and excitement, but less private reflection.
Uncrowded
Private estate - Bakers Walking Co.
Mood: larger and longer-lasting mood improvements after a private day out.
Rumination: significant decrease in repetitive negative thinking.
Stress markers: bigger physiological recovery (larger falls in cortisol).
Connection & sleep: deeper social bonding and better next-night sleep.
“Uncrowded nature gives people deeper calm, clearer thinking and better sleep; crowded outings are sociable and safe but typically deliver smaller restorative gains.”
