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. We begin by stretching our legs on the Cape Tourville Lighthouse circuit. A short and easy walk with spectacular 360 degree views of the surrounding coastline.
Then we pack our lunch and begin our walk to the Wineglass Bay Lookout. This is an uphill walk and takes around 45 minutes to reach the Lookout, where we are well rewarded with the iconic view of Wineglass Bay. Here your guide will help you take those sought after photographs relax in this magic setting and enjoy your lunch break. The round trip walk takes around 1.5 hours.
For the fit and keen, from the Lookout you can extend your walk down to Wineglass Bay Beach (2.5 hr return walk). You have time on this famous beach to take a swim, relax, eat your lunch or explore along the white sands. If you return directly from the Lookout with our Tour Guide, we will have time visit Honeymoon Bay in the afternoon.
We re-group ready for the return journey. Our final stop on the East Coast is the stunning Devil’s Corner Winery, where you will have time to take in the magnificent view. On site you can enjoy a wine tasting, wood fired pizza, fresh seafood and ice creams all available at own expense on the day.
