Wineglass Bay and Hazards Beach Circuit
11.1 km
Circuit
3 h to 4 h
Starting from the Wineglass Bay car park off Freycinet Drive, Freycinet National Park, this walk takes you past Wineglass Bay and Hazard Beach. Enjoy a more challenging and complete experience of Freycinet on this extended circuit that takes in stunning coastal views and pristine beaches. The trail meanders through bushland up to the saddle between Mount Amos and Mount Mayson, passing the Wineglass Bay Lookout before descending to the bay's beach. From there, the trail crosses the isthmus towards Hazards Beach then skirts along the rocky coastline back to the car park. You'll have excellent swimming opportunities at both beaches and a number of picturesque little coves. The trail is well maintained, with some rough steps, steep hills and occasional boardwalk sections. Sturdy footwear, sunscreen and insect repellent are recommended, as well as plenty of drinking water. The lookout can often be crowded, especially on weekends and holidays, but the beaches are much more secluded and you might be lucky enough to have them all to yourself. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
