Itinerary

Days 1-2 Hobart/Strahan

Tasmania's vibrant and picturesque capital, Hobart has a growing reputation as a cultural hotspot with world-class art galleries, fine restaurants and the famous Salamanca Market. A small harbour town on Tasmania's wild west coast, Strahan is a short drive from the magnificent Ocean Beach - a seemingly endless stretch of windswept dunes and ocean views.

Day 3 Cradle Mountain/Launceston

The pristine wilderness around Cradle Mountain is one of Australia's great destinations thanks to its beautiful scenery, colourful alpine vegetation and epic walking trails. Launceston is a beautiful riverside city with well-maintained historic buildings, a relaxed atmosphere and picturesque natural surrounds.

Day 4 Launceston/Bicheno

A laidback fishing town just north of the Freycinet Peninsula, Bicheno is known for its fresh seafood, sandy beaches and great scenery.

Day 5 Freycinet National Park/Hobart

A beautifully rugged area of granite mountains and azure bays, Freycinet National Park is home to one of the world's best beaches, Wineglass Bay.
