Tasmania's rugged beauty takes on an enchanted quality in winter. The air is crisp, and falling snow dusts the mountains and eucalyptus trees. Festivals celebrate apple cider, chocolate, singing, and the winter solstice. It's also the perfect season for a sip of Tasmanian whisky by a cozy open fire.
