We joined my Niece in raising money for Women's Breast Cancer, in all we raised $10,000 Aus. As we could not be present on the actual day, we were still able to participate wherever we were in Australia.

#hikingadventures #hiking #hikingroutes #nationalparks We had the perfect place with the perfect views and found ourselves in Freycinet National Park in Tasmania.

We had enough time and energy, take the extended Wineglass Bay & Hazards Beach Walk from Wineglass Bay lookout. The hard work is done when we climbed to the highest point on this walk. Not only did this walk give us a chance to dig our toes into the pristine white sand of Tasmania’s most famous beach, but it’ll also took us across the Isthmus to the gorgeous Hazards beach on the other side. And the majority of the walk was downhill.

To start the descent to Wineglass Bay Beach, return to the junction with the beach trail that you passed on the way up when you reached the saddle between Mt Amos and Mt Mayson. The descent along the tree-lined trail is quite steep but the trail is well maintained and the forest canopy shelters you from the sun. It takes about 30 minutes to reach the heavenly Wineglass Bay beach and once you do, you’ll forget all about the steep trail.

The beach is gorgeous and it feels miles away from anywhere. While you don’t get that same perfect arch perspective of the beach as you do from a high vantage point, here you can enjoy the view of the magnificent pink granite slabs that frame the lookout. For the best views, walk towards the southern end of the beach before resuming the trail.
Once you can tear yourself away from Wineglass Bay beach, follow the Isthmus track north towards the more secluded Hazards beach and discover what’s hiding on the other side of the Isthmus. It takes about 45 min to reach Hazards beach. If you brought a packed lunch, this is the perfect spot for a picnic.

From Hazards beach, follow the track north, along the coastline on the western side of the peninsula past virtually deserted sandy coves with gorgeous views of Great Oyster Bay. This is a great place for a dip if you don’t mind the cold water.

The last section of the track travels uphill, but it’s not a very long stretch and it brings you right back to Wineglass Bay car park.

This is an easy walk to do on your own, but if you like to learn about the history and the environment of the area as you explore, you might like to join a 5.5 hour guided walk to Hazards beach that leaves from Freycinet Lodge.
