Tour Description
Day 1: Port Arthur
Start your trip with a visit to the photogenic Tasman Peninsula for a short walk and views over the
Southern Ocean. Explore one of Tassie’s tourist hotspots, the Port Arthur Historic Site. Learn about
the life of a convict in a place once considered “Hell On Earth”. Take the opportunity to view the site
as the convicts would have from aboard a cruise boat on the harbor (included) then unwind on the
return to Hobart via Richmond.
Overnight: Hobart
Day 2: Freycinet Peninsula
Head for the beaches today via a short stop at the historic town of Ross. At Freycinet National Park,
sink your feet into the pristine white sand and admire the world-famous beach at Wineglass Bay.
Finish the day in sleepy Bicheno, home to the Little Penguins who return to their rookeries each night
upon dark.
Overnight: Bicheno (breakfast)
Day 3: Bay of Fires
Soak up the coastal scenery along one of Australia’s greatest journey’s from Bicheno to St Helens.
Stretch your legs and revitalise your senses with a peaceful beach walk at the Bay of Fires. Visit the
rainforests and waterfall at St Columba Falls, before finishing the day in the pretty colourful city of
Launceston.
Overnight: Launceston (breakfast)
Day 4: Cradle Mountain
Go west and spend the day at Cradle Mountain exploring some of the numerous walks within the
world heritage listed national park. Take a stroll around Dove Lake, or head off to test your lungs with
a hike to Marion’s Lookout or on one of the many other great walks.
Overnight: Cradle Mountain (breakfast)
Day 5: Strahan
Admire Cradle Mountain once more before heading to the wild west coast. Climb Henty Sand Dunes
and stroll along the endless stretch of Ocean Beach with nothing but the wild “Roaring Forties”
providing the freshest air in the world. Spend the night in the tiny township of Strahan, tucked
alongside the jewel of the west coast, Macquarie Harbour (six times bigger than Sydney harbour!).
Overnight: Strahan (breakfast)
Day 6: Mt Field
Head south and inland today with a short walk to Nelson Falls, and take a drink from the famous
Franklin River, where you’ll learn about the beginning of the Greens Party. Drop in at Lake St Clair
then finish the day at Mt Field NP and photogenic Russell Falls. Hug a tall tree goodbye then relax on
your way back to Hobart through the picturesque Derwent Valley.
Finish Hobart (breakfast)
