Day 4 was one of our more ambitious days in the trip in terms of the number and diversity of places to be visited, as we made our way from Cradle Mountain back to Launceston. At a glance, the fairly packed itinerary consisted of visits to Mole Creek Karst National Park and Trowunna Wildlife Park, stopping at a honey farm at Chudleigh and wine-tasting at a Tamar Valley vineyard. In terms of driving, the itinerary wasn't demanding though, as distances between stops were reasonably short.

A trip to Tasmania surely cannot go without seeing the iconic Tasmania devil.

The honey farm at Chudleigh where we stopped by is a nice place to pick up some gifts to bring home, as well as some refreshments. Their wide selection of honey-flavoured ice-cream provided an excellent treat. The distinctive Tasmanian leatherwood honey flavour is a recommended choice.

We arrived at Tamar Valley in time for a round of wine-tasting, and selected a bottle for our next home-cooked dinner planned for a later day in the trip.

After checking in the same hotel as where we stayed on the first night, we took a stroll through Launcestion city-centre for another seafood-themed dinner.
