The Inglis River is a watercourse in North West Tasmania, Australia, flowing for approximately 61 kilometres. It empties into Bass Strait at the town of Wynyard. The river's character changes along its length, with the lower tidal sections near Wynyard being influenced by the sea. Paddlers report that above the first road bridge upstream from the coast, the river narrows and the scenery becomes more pleasant for kayaking or paddle boarding. A specific access point is a boat ramp, which serves as a launch and take-out site for a day trip requiring about two hours of paddling time one way. The Inglis River Walkway along the southern bank provides a separate, easy hiking trail covering 2.5 miles. For paddlers, the tidal state is a significant consideration, as very low tides can affect navigation in the lower reaches. The river flows through a 15-acre area near Wynyard that offers secluded river access for activities like kayaking and swimming, alongside facilities such as a caravan and camping retreat. The overall experience is described as peaceful, with the river narrowing into more scenic sections upstream. The region's weather patterns and water conditions should be consulted for trip planning.
