Tips

March 19, 2026

Cape Raoul Lookout is one of the first major viewpoints along the track, where the forest opens onto a cliff edge with expansive views across the Tasman Peninsula coastline. From here, the landscape begins to transition from sheltered woodland to exposed coastal heath, with the dramatic drop of the cape becoming immediately apparent. It’s a key turning point where you'll first experience the scale of the cliffs and the increasingly windswept terrain ahead.

Hiking

Do the round trip to Cape Raoul. It takes 4h only (on the signs they indicate 5h, but that must be for fat ozzie girls;)... it's worth it! Breathtaking lookouts, fresh air and only a few tourists go the whole way! We could not do it that day due to pouring rain, but will cime back again.
