Bruny Island Active Adventure

Overview


Bruny Island is made for adventure. This streamlined active day tour is designed for travellers who want to get outside, explore the island and experience its wild landscapes, with a focus on walking, hiking and nature.


The day combines short hikes, rainforest, beaches, lagoons and coastal scenery. At least one walk of approximately 1.5 hours is included, with the exact trail chosen based on weather, track conditions and the group. Walks may include sections of Fluted Cape, Cape Queen Elizabeth or the Grassy Point Track.


The pace is active but achievable, with opportunities to stretch your legs, spot wildlife and experience the island environment. You do not need to be an experienced hiker, but you should be comfortable walking on uneven tracks and spending a good part of the day outdoors.
