2025 Big Trip

Tasmania 15 March 2025

Saturday – Salamanca market, Cascade brewery

We went to the Salamanca Markets (with thousands of other people). So many things to see. So many jewellery stalls, hat stalls, timber work stalls, food stalls, handicrafts, tourist stuff and we managed to buy some fresh Tasmanian berries. Blueberries, blackberries, strawberries and raspberries. Yum!!

In the afternoon, Sutts and Sam took a tour of the Cascade Brewery while Mia and I had some chill time back at the house. The Brewery has a very interesting past and some amazing buildings. There were 2 brothers involved in the building of the brewery, one of them spent a bit of time in jail. They produce the longest running beer in Australia the Cascade Pale “Ale” and the ale is in inverted commas because it is actually a lager.

After the Brewery Tour we took a drive up to have a look at Myrtle Falls, about a 10 minute drive and walk up from the brewery. Lush forest with ferns. Not a lot of water running over the falls at the moment.
