Hiking the Blue Mountains to the Grampians followed by Tasmania and the southeastern coast.
Come and visit the famous penal colony of Port Arthur and for those game enough, take a night ghost tour through the ruins. A hike at Mt Amos and Wine Glass Bay on the Freycinet Peninsula awaits you before heading to the night life at Launceston and your included flight back to the mainland. We have 2 nights down at Wilson's Promontory, where remote, rugged and beautiful back country hikes are on offer before heading north to the beach and relaxing at Lake's Entrance. Our first day finds us hiking the famous giant staircase and the Jamison Valley in the Blue Mountains before catching the world's steepest railway back to the top. We head south through the Great Dividing Range, crossing the mighty Murray River before hiking the trails of the Grampians National Park. Explore the Great Ocean Road, seeing the Twelve Apostles, London Bridge and Otway National Park before riding the trams, eating out at St Kilda or just relaxing in Melbourne. Board your included morning flight to Tasmania before we transfer over to Cradle Mountain, the hiking Mecca of Tassie. The next few days find us doing day hikes at Cradle Mt, Tullah, Strahan and Lake St Clair before arriving in Hobart. There is still time for a rugged half-day mountain bike ride through the fire trails before interacting with the kangaroos on our last night out of Sydney.
