Information

One of the iconic scenes from Tasmania - numerous options to experience it.
Option 1: look down onto Wineglass Bay from Mount Amos. A very strenuous 1 1/2 hour walk (one way) basically straight up hill across and around boulders to see the classic sight.
Option 2: hike to the Wineglass Bay Lookout. The most popular option but still strenuous for those unused to hiking or unfit. Easy for fit people.
Option 3: after reaching the Wineglass Bay lookout continue down 1000 steps to the beach and enjoy the bay before returning back the way you came or extend your hike a further 8km around to Hazards Beach. There are toilets and tank water.
