A Day At Wineglass Bay - Launceston to Hobart

Overview

Travel one way from Launceston to Hobart via Freycinet National Park and the Great Eastern Drive. This flexible full-day tour combines intercity transport with Wineglass Bay, coastal walks, optional swimming and East Coast produce.

Choose a longer independent hike, including Wineglass Bay or the challenging Mt Amos ascent, or join your guide for a more relaxed visit to the Wineglass Bay lookout and Cape Tourville. The day also includes time at Honeymoon Bay and a stop at Freycinet Marine Farm for seafood and regional wine at your own cost. There will be an opportunity to purchase breakfast, snacks and a packed lunch before the main walks.
