Cape Raoul Track
Tasman National Park
Directions - Located just over an hour and a half from Hobart, take the Tasman Highway towards Port Arthur, turning right onto Nubeena Road at Port Arthur. Follow this until you reach a left turn for Stormlea Road, continuing all the way to the end where you will find a car park. The trail head is located to the south of the car park as you head into the forest.
The Hike - With a late 2022 trip to Tasweginland to attempt the South Coast Track, I added a couple of days to the start of the holiday just in case flight delays occurred. The good thing about this if the delays didn't happen, was that I had some time to explore some tracks around Hobart that have been on my to-hike list for a while. Having hiked up to the summit of Mount Wellington on the Pinnacle Circuit the previous day after arriving in Hobart that morning, my plan for the day before setting off on the South Coast Track was to visit the third Cape I didn't get to experience in 2018 on the wine and cheese version of the Three Capes.
