Itinerary

1. Tasman National Park

   After a scenic drive (with a coffee stop!), we arrive at Fortescue Bay in the Tasman National Park, the starting point of our hike. The return hike is approximately 9.4 km (around 4 hours) and includes plenty of stairs and undulating sections – a rewarding challenge for active adventurers. The well maintained track winds through forest, woodland, and coastal heath, opening out to spectacular cliffs and sweeping ocean views. Along the way, we’ll take plenty of rest breaks to soak in the scenery and the wild beauty of the Tasman Sea crashing below. The track leads all the way to the Cape Hauy lookout, where the famous “Candlestick” and “Totem Pole” sea stacks rise spectacularly from the ocean – a favourite among photographers and climbers alike.
