Information

Fantastic views of the Freycinet National Park from the lighthouse circuit walk. A very easy walk.

The lighthouse at Cape Tourville was constructed in 1971 to replace the inaccessable Cape Forestier Lighthouse which was decommissioned the same year.The lighthouse was constructed as an automatic light and was never manned.

The 7km Cape Tourville road is unsealed but is suitable for two-wheel drive vehicles.
