Tasmania's Maria Island Walk (Non-Portered)

< View Other Tours

Tour Overview

Spend four days wandering the wildlife-filled stretches of Maria Island (Wukaluwikiwayna) on a guided and fully catered pack-carrying multi-day hike on one of the Great Walks of Australia. After ferrying from Tasmania’s east coast across the Mercury Passage, you’ll spend two days walking along the white sand and clear water beaches of the coast. Then, journey through cloud rainforests, up to the peak of Bishop and Clerk and over to the Fossil Cliffs, likely spotting furry friends and squawking birdlife between the eucalyptus trees. Enjoy nights spent sleeping at beach-side bush camps and a heritage-listed cottage while dining by candlelight on fresh local produce.
