Itinerary
Day 1
Launceston / Bay of Fires / St Helens
Welcome to Tasmania! Your adventure begins in Launceston – land of the Litarimirina and Panina peoples. This is one of Australia’s oldest settlements and one of only two cities in Australia listed as a UNESCO city of gastronomy. Your adventure begins at 8 am with a drive to the Bay of Fires region, then it’s time for your first walk on the Cobler Rocks Loop. Walk the sandy track through banksia-filled heathland to the beach. Take in the coastline of the Mount William National Park before continuing to Stumpy’s Bay. Stop for a picnic lunch, then set off on your next walk – the Mount William Summit Track. Climb to the highest point to take in the 360-degree views of jagged mountain ranges, tall eucalyptus trees and open plains. After today’s walk, you’ll check into your accommodation for the next two nights in St Helens – perfectly positioned to explore the walking trails of Tasmania’s north-east coast. Tonight, enjoy dinner with your fellow travellers and get to know each other a little better.
Day 2
Bay of Fires / St Helens
After breakfast, travel to Eddystone Point Lighthouse for today’s loop walk. As you go, take in the scenic coastal landscape, clear beaches and rock formations, and learn about the historic lighthouse that used to guide ships entering or leaving Banks Strait. This afternoon, you’ll visit the Priory Ridge Winery in St Helens. Spend some time at the family-run vineyard, learn about the estate and its local produce, then unwind with a wine tasting of a few local drops.
Day 3
Bay of Fires / Launceston
This morning, travel to The Gardens – a coastal area in the Bay of Fires Conservation Area, known for its orange-lichen covered rocks, clear water and white sandy beaches. Set off on a short walk to Binalong Bay. Explore the coastline north of Binalong Bay and look out for local wildlife like wallabies and echidnas along the way. After morning tea at Binalong Bay, take the return walk from Skeleton Bay to Dora Point. Walk along the coast and through dry sclerophyll forest with native blooms. This afternoon, you’ll travel to Launceston Airport, where your trip will come to an end. If you’d like to stay longer, just talk to your booking agent ahead of time.
