1. Mt Amos Climb

Reviewed By Peter_Clare_50
This is more than a walk as there is a lot of rock scrambling. Please make to not do if wet or there has been recent rain as it will be very sloppy in parts. Also make sure you have good hiking shoes and we also found hiking poles and gloves useful. The 3km return trip can take 4 hours but it is worth it - the views are spectacular. A great memory, a must for anyone who likes a bit of adventure.

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!

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.

Best to arrive in the afternoon, when high tide is in and the swell is big, as you wlll get the best photos. You will need to wait to get the great picture , and have your camera ready and keep it ready as you need to get the picture.

We jagged the most gorgeous afternoon & the view is as good as a postcard, good paths & absolutely worth the climb
7. Cape Tourville Lighthouse

Reviewed By Sonja2020 - Brisbane, Australia
The short walk around the point and up to the lighthouse provided wonderful views across the ocean and also across to the mountains and bays in the National Park. The road up to the lighthouse is quite steep in parts. But the walk from the car park is relatively easy and takes you around the edges.
8. Friendly Beaches

We stayed overnight at the Friendly Beaches camp ground - a free camp overlooking the beach. Sites are made separate by natural vegetation. You cannot book so first in best dressed. No power or running water. Drop toilets with toilet paper but no hand washing facility. An amazing location - spectacular scenery. Cold overnight so rug up. Would recommend.
