Itinerary Our Tasman Peninsula walk is a stunning coastal journey. You will not only be amazed by the spectacular sea cliffs and rock formations but the peninsular has an abundance of wildlife, and boasts over 1/3rd of Tasmania’s recorded plant species which includes 60 threatened species. Day 1: Waterfall Bay to Bivouac Bay [8km] After a short drive from Hobart your tour starts at Waterfall Bay, south of Eaglehawk Neck and heads south along the coastal track past Camp Falls and Waterfall Bluff. A short climb up behind Clemes Peak puts us atop the ridgeline know as the Tasman Coastal Track. From the ridge you have expansive view to Cape Hauy and the Hippolyte Rocks before a short decent to our camp at Bivouac Bay. Day 2: Bivouac Bay to Bare Knoll [11km] From Bivouac Bay we pass through Fortescue Bay and continue south through forest & woodland and into the heart of the Tasman National Park. In this area the vegetation is dominated by, White Stringybark trees, Blue Gums and Fern Trees. As you climb to Tornado Ridge the vegetation changes and it is a reminder that Cape Pillar can be subject to gale force winds. From Tornado Ridge it’s a short walk down the ridgeline to our camp at Bare Knoll. Day 3: Day Walk to Cape Pillar and return [12km] You leave your packs at camp today and we journey down to Cape Pillar where you have views of towering sea cliffs, Capes Hauy and Raoul, Tasman Island, Bruny Island and Maria Island. Around the coastline here, shipwrecks are commonplace, as gale force winds, off shore rocks and narrow passages have claimed many a mariner. Following lunch we retrace our footsteps back to our camp at Bar Knoll. Day 4: Bare Knoll to Fortescue Bay [12.5km] The track drops down into Munroe Bight then up around Mount Fortescue and along the top of the sea cliffs to Cape Hauy. At Cape Hauy lies, the spectacular offshore sea stacks known as the Lanterns and 2 stacks that are popular with climbers called “The Totem Pole” and the “Candlestick” From Cape Hauy you walk through coastal heath to Fortescue Bay and your waiting shuttle back to Hobart. .
