| Very impressive tree buttresses and strangler figs. At the site of the fallen giant fig tree a python with a huge belly. Could barely move. | ||||

|
Loontitetermairrelehoiner Track (East Coast Tasmania) |
13 Dec, 2020 |
Easy |
2.3km return 45 mins |

|
Mt Wellington - Summit Lookouts (Wellington Park) |
13 Dec, 2020 |
Very Easy |
400m return 30 mins |
|

Wineglass Bay/Hazards Beach Circuit (Freycinet National Park) |
12 Dec, 2020 |
Medium |
11.5km return 4 hrs |

| Hazards Beach was the highlight for me on this walk. All to myself, near perfect colours of the sand/ water, lots of interesting shells all over the beach. Take your time while doing this section! | ||||
|
Mount Amos (Freycinet National Park) |
12 Dec, 2020 |
Hard |
4km return 3 hrs |
|
| Unmatched views in all directions. Make sure to have time to sit on the top for a while. Sadly, a few tourists walk up with phone in hand only. Not very helpful if the weather changes or it is as hot/ dry as today. Silly accidents may cause authorities to close the walk. | ||||
|

11 Dec, 2020 |
Easy |
1km return 20 mins |
|
| One of the many picturesque places along the Bay of Fires. The end of the sealed road. | ||||

10 Dec, 2020 |
Medium |
6.3km return 2.5 hrs |
|
| Raised boardwalks, water falls, river gorge and rock scrambling- this track has a bit of everything. I enjoyed especially the final stretch through the button grass with the rising sun warming my back. | ||||
|
Enchanted Walk (Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park) |
9 Dec, 2020 |
Very Easy |
1.1km one-way 30 mins |
|
| Overrated in my opinion, perhaps at times crowded as well, but certainly one of the easiest to access. I did it as an add-on. | ||||
|
King Billy Track (Reynolds Falls Nature Recreation Area) |
9 Dec, 2020 |
Easy |
2km return 40 mins |
|
| After a long day on the alpine tracks, I was challenged by the many steps of the well maintained boardwalk sections. Even a bit eerie at late arvo. | ||||
|
Marions Lookout (Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park) |
9 Dec, 2020 |
Hard |
7.5km return 3 hrs |
|
| Went up from Ronny Creek in rain, wind and clouds. Weather cleared up during the day. I was prepared and enjoyed every minute. | ||||
|
Face Track (Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park) |
9 Dec, 2020 |
Medium |
2km one-way 1 hr |
|
| Good alternative if weather on top of Cradle Mt is too wild. Splendid views up and down. | ||||

7 Dec, 2020 |
Medium |
6.5km return 2.25 hrs |

Easy |
