Ulverstone - Kokopelli Lodge

Ulverstone

Ulverstone

With a population of about 10,000 Ulverstone is a coastal town at the mouth of the Leven River supported by agriculture and tourism. Further inland, the Gunns Plains Caves operate tours regularly. The limestone caves have an underground creek, and occasionally lobsters and other wildlife can be found. If you aren't afraid of heights, Leven Canyon is well worth the visit - views of the 400-metre gorge are spectacular. There are several waterfalls in the area - some can be reached by car, others require some bushwalking.
