Our new Maria Island & Freycinet Walk is for the birds!

We love showcasing our walks from the land, the sea and the air, and on our new 5-day Maria Island & Freycinet Ultimate pack-free guided walk you get all three including TWO amazing scenic flights!

You’ll start off with a 30min flight from Hobart to Maria Island where you’ll enjoy spectacular views of the east coast, passing the striking and rugged coastline and dramatic Marion Bay before landing on the island’s private airstrip.

Your goal for the day is the island’s highest peak, Bishop and Clerk, plus you’ll learn all about Maria’s fascinating geology, including the famous fossil cliffs which you get a chance to explore.

From there it’s a lovely boat ride back to the mainland where you should score some great views of the Freycinet Peninsula, then it’s a quick bus ride to the iconic Freycinet Lodge where we’ll stay for the next three nights.

That evening, like every evening, you’ll enjoy a superb dinner featuring local Tassie produce, perfectly matched with local boutique wines.

The next two days will be spent exploring Freycinet, Oyster Bay and other highlights, then on day five after a strenuous climb to Mt Amos to get that famous view of Wineglass Bay you’ll be rewarded with a thrilling helicopter flight over Wineglass Bay and the Hazards Mountain Range.

This unforgettable aerial adventure offers panoramic views of pristine beaches and vibrant landscapes, providing a unique perspective on one of Australia’s most picturesque regions. You better bring a good camera!

Anyway don’t listen to us hear what one of our guests said about the trip:

“Guides Joel and Dan were outstanding. They were always helpful, knowledgeable, patient and very caring and well organised.

Joel paced the stages of the walk brilliantly so no one was unduly extended physically. His knowledge of the sites was astounding along with the history of the indigenous people.”

“Amazing local foods, wines were served each evening. It was a gastronomic experience and memorable guided walk.

“This was my first guided walk and surpassed my expectations. I was so impressed by the attention to detail and professionalism of the guides that created a beautiful experience. I will definitely go on another guided walk with Life’s an Adventure.” – Tim Wilson
