We depart Launceston today travelling through the well-preserved Georgian townships of Evandale and Campbell Town.

We make a short stop in Campbell Town where you can collect some lunch to take along for the day ahead. You will have time to discover the Convict Brick Trail that extends through the town, visit the Red Bridge, and check out the tree sculptures depicting the history of the town.

The amazing views of the Hazards mountains greet us as we enter the Freycinet National Park.

Inside Freycinet National Park we begin a series of walks and exploration of the area. We walk as a group to the Wineglass Bay Lookout, a moderate uphill walk of about 45 minutes. At the top you are rewarded with that world–famous view of Wineglass Bay. Take in the views and let our guides help with those sought-after photographs. The walk to Wineglass Bay Lookout is one of the Great Short Walks of Tasmania and requires good mobility and adequate fitness. It is 1.3 km uphill, before returning downhill. From the Lookout you have the option to return to the start of the walk with our tour guide and continue to explore other areas of Freycinet. Or for the keen hikers you can choose to continue the full hike Wineglass Bay Beach & return. All up this is a 2.5 hr return walk and good fitness is required. Once on the beach you can enjoy your lunch in this stunning setting, swim and relax on the white sands. This is one of the most rewarding walks in Tasmania to a stunning location.

Prefer a more relaxed pace? If you choose to return after the Wineglass Bay Lookout, you will join our tour guide to explore more of the highlights of Freycinet National Park, with plenty of time to take it all in without the longer hike. We stop for lunch at Honeymoon Bay, a sheltered and picturesque spot with clear water and white sand. It is a lovely place to relax, enjoy your lunch and soak up the scenery before we continue on.

After lunch we continue to Cape Tourville Lighthouse, another of Tasmania’s 60 Great Short Walks. The Cape Tourville circuit is a gentle, flat boardwalk trail suitable for most fitness levels, offering spectacular coastal views along the way. It is a great way to finish your time in the park, and our guides will be on hand to help with photographs.

We re-group ready for the return journey. Our final stop on the East Coast is Devil’s Corner Winery, perched above the vineyards with sweeping views across the water to the Hazards mountains. On site you can enjoy a glass of wine, wood fired pizza, fresh seafood, oysters from Freycinet Marine Farm and ice creams, all available at your own expense on the day.
