I am curious as to how much of Tasmania is forested? I understand that you have mountain forests and something like a temperate rain forest which I picture being like Washington State more cool damp. Are the forested areas very extensive, can you hike for days?

I'm trying to find the figure and can't, but at a guess I'd say over 60% of the state, probably even more. Big battles over deforestation and old-growth forests, none of which I'm really *that* clued into sadly.
I'm not much of a hiker - I do like being out in the wilderness but I prefer daytime only lol! But there are trails that suggest days, yeah.
