About this tour
A 10-hour guided day walk exploring Cape Hauy, one of Tasmania's most celebrated coastal hikes, with time to taste local wines on the return to Hobart. You'll walk 9.4 km over roughly 4 hours through Tasman National Park's dramatic clifftop terrain as part of the famous Three Capes Track, capped by a stop at Bangor Vineyard Shed. Groups stay small — maximum 10 people — so you won't feel crowded on the exposed headland.

- Dramatic clifftop views across Tasman National Park
- Section of the renowned Three Capes Track in one day

What to expect
You'll be picked up and driven to Cape Hauy trailhead in Tasman National Park, where your guide briefs the group before the hike begins. The 9.4 km walk is rated moderate and takes roughly 4 hours, following coastal track across headland with ocean views. The route is exposed and uneven in places — the landscape is the main event, not creature comforts. After finishing the walk, you head to Bangor Vineyard Shed for a wine tasting before returning to Hobart, wrapping up around 10 hours after start.

Good to know
This suits confident walkers who want Tasmania's most striking coastal scenery without committing to the full multi-day Three Capes Track. You need moderate fitness — steep sections and exposed terrain mean poor cardiovascular health is a genuine limitation, not marketing gatekeeping. Weather on the headland can shift fast; bring layers and water-resistant jacket. No food is included, so pack snacks if you don't want to wait until the vineyard stop. Service animals welcome. Groups max at 10, which helps but doesn't guarantee solitude on peak days.
