Cape Raoul - Tasmania's Tasman Peninsula

#australiatrip Cape Raoul on Tasmania's Tasman Peninsula offers one of the most dramatic day hikes with its towering dolerite cliffs and panoramic ocean views. The journey begins at the end of Stormlea Road, leading hikers through a mix of forest and heath to the awe-inspiring cliff edges where the sea crashes against the rocks below. The well-maintained track, part of Tasmania's Great Short Walks, is a moderate 14km return, providing a scenic and invigorating experience. The highlight of Cape Raoul is undoubtedly the dramatic drop into the ocean where you can witness the geological marvel of dolerite columns jutting out of the landscape. The walk is not only a feast for the eyes with its breathtaking vistas of Raoul Bay and the chance to spot seals but also offers a serene escape into nature. With its challenging yet rewarding path, Cape Raoul is a must-visit for anyone seeking the wild beauty of Tasmania's coastline.
