Overview

We arrive at Wilsons Prom and embark on our first hike for the day, a scenic coastal walk from Tidal River to Pillar Point. Following the banks of the Tidal River, the track winds through beautiful terrain before emerging to stunning 360 degree views of the bays and beaches of Wilsons Promontory. Once we return we will take a small drive to the general store for some lunch. Next, it’s time for our second hike of the day, a 7.8 km return journey to the famous Mt Oberon. From the summit, you will experience arguably the best coastal views in Victoria. Our next stop is one of our favourites, Squeaky Beach. Here you can wander on the incredibly white rounded grains of quartz which make a squeaking sound giving this popular local beach its name. Finally, as we are departing the National Park, we will make a stop to see our native furry friends. There is a high chance you’ll see Wombats, Emus, Kangaroos and Wallabies going about their daily business.
