When Dismal Swamp opened back in 2004, there were hopes it would be the heart of tourism in Tasmania's far north-west, but its operation was troubled and has been left abandoned since 2019.
Most of the money will be used to completely revitalise the Dismal Swamp site and make it ready for a private investor.
"The idea is to take make that site a hub where people will come and stay and explore the whole of the far north-west," Mr Walker said. Another 30 minutes of driving and you'll arrive in the small town of Arthur River, described as the edge of the world — the sea west of here is the longest uninterrupted expanse of ocean on Earth."It's remote, beautiful and wild. It's a great place to live, a great place to work and it's a great place to visit," deckhand Kaitlynn Voss-Powell said.
