From the Lookout, you have the option to return to the start of the walk with your tour guide, or for the keen walkers you can choose to spend the rest of your time completing the walk down to Wineglass beach (two-and-a-hours return). If you choose to travel with your guide, you’ll will explore more of the National Park and visit Honeymoon Bay, Sleepy Bay and Cape Tourville lookout and Great Short Walk. After four to five-hours at Freycinet National Park you will then continue your journey onto Launceston.

Enjoy the panoramic views of the area from Pirates Bay Lookout, see the interesting Tasman Arch and Devils Kitchen rock formations and join a short but spectacular walk along the Waterfall Bay cliff top track. From here you’ll visit the Tasmanian Devil Zoo for an encounter with beloved local wildlife heroes. Then onwards to the Port Arthur Historic Site where you have around two-and-half-hours to explore.
