Wilson Promontory Day Tour
DISCOVER UNFORGETTABLE COASTAL VIEWS & IMPRESSIVE MOUNTAIN VISTAS IN OUR ONE OF A KIND, SMALL GROUP TOUR.
This small group (max 8 guests) hiking tour is made for those who want the best of the beach and the mountains. We arrive at Wilsons Prom and embark on our first hike for the day which takes us through beautiful terrain and emerges to the vastness of “The Big Drift” Wilsons Promontory sand dunes. An out of this world and inescapable view that can be often overlooked.
Once we return we will take a small drive to the general store for some lunch. Next, it’s time for our second hike of the day, a 7.8 km return journey to either Mt Oberon or Mr Bishop. From the summit, you will experience arguably the best coastal views in Victoria.
Our next stop is one of our favourites, Squeaky Beach. Here you can wander on the incredibly white rounded grains of quartz which make a squeaking sound giving this popular local beach its name.
Finally, as we are departing the National Park, we will make a stop to see our native furry friends. There is a high chance you’ll see Wombats, Emus, Kangaroos and Wallabies going about their daily business.
