About Our Sanctuary

Devils@Cradle is a world class conservation facility dedicated to ensuring the survival of Tasmania’s most unique species. 

Our sanctuary is located at the start of one of Tasmania’s premier wilderness destinations – the World Heritage listed Cradle Mountain – Lake St Clair National Park. The spectacular and pristine wilderness of Cradle Mountain is the natural home of all three of our focused species, including the mysterious and elusive Tasmanian Devil. 

Visitors to the sanctuary can see and learn all about the Tasmanian devils, Eastern quolls and Spotted-tail quolls whilst gaining an insight into the operations of a working conservation facility. Come and wander through the sanctuary at your own leisure or join a tour, all while knowing your admission fee is contributing to the conservation of these iconic animals.

Our Wildlife Experiences

Open DAY and NIGHT every day, we offer a range of engaging experiences to suit everyone, from General Entry, and DAY KEEPER TOURS during the day, to our very popular AFTER DARK FEEDING TOURS in the evening. If you’re looking for something a little more up-close and personal, we also offer intimate JOEY ENCOUNTERS and our SUNSET EXPERIENCE. 

With every tour, an experienced Keeper will give you an accurate understanding of the life cycles, biology, threats and conservation efforts of our three species. We consider this aspect of our work a valuable tool in the education of the general public, and an important part in the effort to secure the future of our devils and quolls.

Don’t miss your chance to visit Devils@Cradle … you’ll be pleased you did.
