Freycinet National Park

Reviewed By 612ashleyh - Traralgon, Australia

Freycinet National park has something for everyone. We visited with our 8-month-old baby and were still able to do a few walks in the park including the Wineglass Bay Lookout, Sleepy Bay and the lighthouse walk. The scenery is breathtaking and the different hikes available cater to all abilities. The 24hr parking park pass cost about $25 which was worth the money as the walking trails and very well maintained! Definitely visit here if travelling in the area! There are camping sites you can hire in the park as well!

Wineglass Bay

Reviewed By Krazz - Melbourne, Australia

We hiked to the lookout, then hiked down to the beach. It states 1.5 hrs return from lookout, but going down took 30-40 minutes as it is down hill. Once you get to the beach, it is absolutely beautiful. We spent some time relaxing there, you can walk along the water, spend as long as you want, even go for a swim! Toilets are located here also. You can continue to the Hazards beach or walk back up to the top. Beware, this is strenuous, 1000 steps back up. We stopped few times to rest as we are only moderately fit. But it was all worth it. Must do if you can.

Coles Bay

Reviewed By sunseeker2016 - Brisbane, Australia

As you walk up the Hazards towards the Wine Glass Bay lookout, you do get some sweeping views back to Coles Bay. It's a small township, mostly nestled on a slope that graduates down to the beach, with views over the bay to the Hazards, which themselves are an interesting pink hue- due to the rose coloured feldspar which is a part of the mix of minerals, also including black mica and white quartz, in the ganite. Apparently, this seam of granite stretches, under Bass Straight, all the way back to Wilson's promitory in Victoria. Lucky Cole's Bay residents, to have such a view. The shops and cafe's are limited, but we liked Geographe, a small cafe slightly uphill from the jetty.
