About this tour
A four-day walking expedition across Tasmania's Bay of Fires, guided by wilderness-trained locals who cook substantial meals at a working farm between days on the trail. You'll trek through the region's most striking landscapes—red granite cliffs, white sand beaches, coastal heathland—staying in genuine farm accommodation rather than tourist lodges. Includes all meals, park fees and return transfers from Launceston.
Highlights
- Red granite headlands and pristine white-sand beaches
- Guided walks led by wilderness first-aid qualified instructors
- Farm stay accommodation between hiking days
- All meals prepared on-site by your guides
- Coastal heathland and native bushland
- Return transfers from Launceston CBD included
What to expect
Expect moderate to challenging walking each day across varied coastal terrain—sandy beaches give way to rocky outcrops and inland scrub. Your two guides lead the pace and navigate; they're trained in wilderness medicine, not just local knowledge. Mornings start with breakfast at the farm, then you walk with packed lunch and snacks. Afternoons involve return to base, where guides prepare dinner from simple, filling ingredients. Three nights in farm accommodation means shared facilities and rural quiet. The physical demand is real: uneven ground, weather exposure, full days on your feet.
Good to know
Moderate fitness essential—this isn't a gentle stroll. Not suitable if you have spinal issues, are pregnant, or have cardiovascular concerns. Bring sturdy walking boots, layers for Tasmania's changeable weather, and sun protection. No alcohol included; you're welcome to bring your own.
